- 19:05Speaker 6: This was like the entire series of the entire series.
- 19:08Speaker 1: Because it's a one shot. It's literally it's literally a
- 19:13Speaker 1: litmus test to see if people will buy the book.
- 19:17Speaker 1: That was that's the reason for the one shot. Well,
- 19:20Speaker 1: people will buy the book if you especially if they
- 19:25Speaker 1: have their pre orders in Can I can can?
- 19:28Speaker 5: Can I ask a question?
- 19:29Speaker 8: And this is between you know us, Melanie and brothers
- 19:32Speaker 8: in the Church of Navy.
- 19:33Speaker 5: Can cannot cannot expound to you for a second.
- 19:38Speaker 8: You don't see them doing this ship with Superman, Batman,
- 19:42Speaker 8: wonder Woman, Wolverine, Punisher, any other character, any other character
- 19:50Speaker 8: that is of the Pillow persuasion. But when it comes
- 19:54Speaker 8: to somebody of color, some stories of characters of color.
- 19:59Speaker 5: You gotta do. You have to pull this to see
- 20:02Speaker 5: if there's an interest. I look like, go. Have you
- 20:06Speaker 5: not seen the emergence of black independent comics. Have you
- 20:10Speaker 5: not seen the emergency of afrocentric stories coming up? People
- 20:14Speaker 5: are getting tired of seeing the same old memes of
- 20:18Speaker 5: the same old looking people all the time.
- 20:22Speaker 1: I can take it even further, even the icon characters
- 20:29Speaker 1: Black Panther and the Crew.
- 20:30Speaker 5: Mmmm, that's an amazing series. I'm so happy I got that.
- 20:34Speaker 1: That was supposed to be a six issue series, but
- 20:37Speaker 1: it ended up being like five or something like that.
- 20:39Speaker 5: And then they stopped it.
- 20:41Speaker 1: They stopped it. I said, are you kidding me?
- 20:46Speaker 8: This was perfect.
- 20:47Speaker 1: The last time I seen anything remotely close to that
- 20:51Speaker 1: level of team up was when I think it was
- 20:55Speaker 1: Reginald Hudland's run on Black Panther and it was like
- 20:59Speaker 1: a bish and they were like three the hard Way
- 21:01Speaker 1: and it was Blade, Black Panther and Luke Cage and
- 21:06Speaker 1: they were New Orleans. I said, this is perfect, this,
- 21:10Speaker 1: this is perfect. This is what I want. I want
- 21:13Speaker 1: these types of interactions, even to the point where uh
- 21:21Speaker 1: Luke Cage said he no Black Panther had posed as
- 21:26Speaker 1: a as a substitute teacher at one point, and he
- 21:30Speaker 1: took the name Luke as honor because he knows Luke
- 21:35Speaker 1: mm hmm. He was like, he likes these other characters.
- 21:40Speaker 1: He's like, we need He's basically like, look, we can
- 21:43Speaker 1: team up all the time if you guys won't. You know,
- 21:47Speaker 1: we ain't. I ain't got to go back to Wakanda.
- 21:49Speaker 1: The ladies got it. I ain't got to go back
- 21:52Speaker 1: right now. But yeah, we see this all the time,
- 21:57Speaker 1: and it's a constant reminder, like and it's don't get
- 22:00Speaker 1: me wrong, it's great when we see the characters that
- 22:02Speaker 1: we really can identify with have their shine. But you're right,
- 22:08Speaker 1: you don't see it with these other flagship characters that
- 22:13Speaker 1: you know. You don't see it with the Batman, you
- 22:15Speaker 1: don't see it with Superman, you don't you barely see
- 22:19Speaker 1: it with Wonder Woman. They keep trashing like between Wonder
- 22:22Speaker 1: Woman Supergirl. I don't think Vixen's had a solo series.
- 22:27Speaker 8: Dixes haven't had a solo series in the better part
- 22:29Speaker 8: of what seven eight years?
- 22:31Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, So, like I can't tell you how many
- 22:35Speaker 1: times the way they did Supergirl during the late nineties
- 22:39Speaker 1: early two thousands. My god, that woman couldn't catch a break.
- 22:45Speaker 8: Don't let it be a woman hero exactly who is
- 22:49Speaker 8: strong but a woman of color? How many times have
- 22:53Speaker 8: we seen Storm being thrown about? And when she finally
- 22:58Speaker 8: gets her own series, people like, it's okay, No.
- 23:02Speaker 1: It's actually good. I agree, it's really like, I'm glad
- 23:07Speaker 1: we're getting it. You know, we still need a black
- 23:10Speaker 1: woman behind the pen, but whatever. You know, we have
- 23:14Speaker 1: Eve Ewing on X Men now and.
- 23:16Speaker 5: It is a beautiful run. Oh my gosh, Eve is
- 23:21Speaker 5: doing it.
- 23:22Speaker 1: Just when I thought we couldn't get anything when it
- 23:28Speaker 1: comes to the X Men, because we identify with the
- 23:30Speaker 1: X Men as well. Hickman did a fantastic job running
- 23:36Speaker 1: everything until they pulled them off, and I'm like, why
- 23:39Speaker 1: are you? What are we doing?
- 23:42Speaker 5: But you know, I did hear a rumor.
- 23:46Speaker 8: About a specific animated series that was on Cartoon Network
- 23:50Speaker 8: that was really popular until they decided to take it
- 23:54Speaker 8: off and replace it with a comical version of itself
- 23:58Speaker 8: that is coming back with US sixth season Young Justice
- 24:04Speaker 8: teen Titans.
- 24:05Speaker 1: Oh okay, I was gonna say, wait, wait a minute,
- 24:07Speaker 1: Young Justice come back.
- 24:10Speaker 7: Already teases once with that knockoff ass what was it
- 24:14Speaker 7: Teen Titans restus Teen Titans Goal movie?
- 24:16Speaker 1: That was? And no shade and no shade to the
- 24:21Speaker 1: Teen Titans Goal franchise or run however you want to
- 24:24Speaker 1: call it. But you know, to the adults it face
- 24:28Speaker 1: for face forward, it does look like it's just like
- 24:30Speaker 1: it's two kitties, and then you realize when you actually
- 24:33Speaker 1: watch it, there's some like there's some jokes. I'm not
- 24:38Speaker 1: gonna lie, there's some jokes. There's literally a scene where
- 24:41Speaker 1: Tim Drake's Robin is talking to the rest of the
- 24:44Speaker 1: team and he's standing next to a bookcase and there
- 24:47Speaker 1: is an urn with a crowbar sitting right just resting
- 24:52Speaker 1: against it with Jason Todd's name on it. I said,
- 24:56Speaker 1: you bitch that Wow?
- 25:00Speaker 5: Are you serious?
- 25:02Speaker 1: I said, I'm like that scene alone is like, let
- 25:06Speaker 1: me watch this show.
- 25:08Speaker 6: Where did you hear the show might be getting revived?
- 25:12Speaker 1: Ah?
- 25:12Speaker 5: There was a post on Instagram.
- 25:16Speaker 1: Was it from Carrie Peyton?
- 25:17Speaker 6: Yes?
- 25:18Speaker 1: I knew it because he's been fighting. He's been fighting
- 25:20Speaker 1: Kyrie man.
- 25:23Speaker 8: That dude. When I tell you, when you have someone
- 25:25Speaker 8: that's trying to put something because the show should have
- 25:27Speaker 8: never gone anywhere.
- 25:28Speaker 5: It was good.
- 25:30Speaker 8: It was good in his storytelling, it was good in
- 25:32Speaker 8: his representation.
- 25:33Speaker 5: It was what Cartoon Network needed.
- 25:37Speaker 1: And man was was the death stroke given Robbin the stress.
- 25:44Speaker 6: Right the whole time.
- 25:45Speaker 7: Couldn't even call him that, so just Can called him Slade,
- 25:48Speaker 7: asking who his name is the whole time. We've been
- 25:51Speaker 7: saying it the entire show, like you've been saying his
- 25:53Speaker 7: government name. I don't while we've been covering his.
- 25:57Speaker 6: Face some boy. Clearly we're having a fear tox and induced.
- 26:03Speaker 1: Like oh my god, yes, Bama, the pinch of salt
- 26:07Speaker 1: on the potatoes and then saying, oh too salty. Look
- 26:10Speaker 1: at Cyborgs face when that's happening.
- 26:12Speaker 7: Uh, young Justice yet Carrie Peyton voice, like every black
- 26:16Speaker 7: person accept Cyborg?
- 26:17Speaker 1: Mm hmm.
- 26:20Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm curious if.
- 26:23Speaker 7: And don't tell me, like the chances of getting a
- 26:26Speaker 7: season six is dependent on uh all of cartoon that
- 26:30Speaker 7: we're going to the dark place next month.
- 26:31Speaker 6: Oh my god, the entire catalog like is going.
- 26:36Speaker 1: Just me and to FRII and I gotta put my
- 26:40Speaker 1: video up me in too far. I've seen the list
- 26:43Speaker 1: that's going to the place that is called Ubi Ta
- 26:46Speaker 1: I'm just gonna use some pig Latin here. H. And
- 26:53Speaker 1: as I'm looking through the list, I'm like, this is
- 26:56Speaker 1: the entire Cartoon Network catalog, the entire Boomerang catalog. And
- 27:04Speaker 1: I'm like, well, what what was it all for? What?
- 27:09Speaker 1: Why do you have Cartoon Network it didn't have Boomerang?
- 27:13Speaker 1: If if the competition is going to take the catalog,
- 27:16Speaker 1: like what what?
- 27:17Speaker 5: What does it mean?
- 27:20Speaker 7: It's a lot like Teen Titans, Justice League, Dexter's Lab Ed,
- 27:24Speaker 7: and Nettie Kurk.
- 27:25Speaker 6: I forgot like a lot of these, Every Vault.
- 27:32Speaker 1: Every version of Scooby Dooe, every version of Tom and Jerry,
- 27:36Speaker 1: an all the.
- 27:38Speaker 7: Yogi Bear, which apparently had like eighteen spinoffs, the Masks,
- 27:41Speaker 7: the animated series Beatle Juice, Coln Chicken, Captain, Planet Duck, Dodgers,
- 27:46Speaker 7: Dumb and Dumb, then series.
- 27:48Speaker 1: Yeah, the Adams Family cartoon from nineteen seventy four. Like
- 27:53Speaker 1: I'm like, I said, I said, why, I said, And
- 27:57Speaker 1: they already had they already had Tom and Jerry over there.
- 28:00Speaker 1: I've seen that. But I'm like, but I'm like, but
- 28:04Speaker 1: that's what Boomerang was for.
- 28:06Speaker 7: I didn't realize they had a whole season of or
- 28:09Speaker 7: they've made an entire supernatural animated series.
- 28:12Speaker 1: Yes they did, yep. Actual the actors, the actual actors
- 28:16Speaker 1: doing the voice work. Yep.
- 28:18Speaker 7: Yeah, super Friends, Secret Squirrel, Globe Prodders, like fifteen versions
- 28:22Speaker 7: of Tom and Jerry, both versions of Wacky Races, shouting
- 28:26Speaker 7: showdown Yogi Yo Yogi, Yogi's Galaxy, goof ups Yogi's Face Race.
- 28:32Speaker 7: It's the whole I don't know how they got their
- 28:34Speaker 7: hands and all of this. Yeah, Badma Tiny the old
- 28:38Speaker 7: Tiny Toes is going over to Too Bama. But it's,
- 28:41Speaker 7: like I said, it's feeling like phase two of the
- 28:43Speaker 7: rebrand Cuz come on, you know what.
- 28:46Speaker 5: It's bad enough.
- 28:47Speaker 8: I wasn't going over to that trashy ass thing in
- 28:49Speaker 8: the first place, and now I have every reason to
- 28:51Speaker 8: wonder who the hell is trying to suck people into that.
- 28:55Speaker 5: Y'all are garbage now here.
- 28:57Speaker 7: Here there is the garbage is what they were pop forward.
- 29:00Speaker 7: But now it's it's gonna now it's rebranding. It's gonna
- 29:04Speaker 7: becomes the new place for it. So the nonsense is
- 29:07Speaker 7: what made people know the name. Now you put a
- 29:10Speaker 7: whole new batch of kids over there, and now they
- 29:13Speaker 7: get known as the place where like your childhood is alive.
- 29:16Speaker 6: So the people that made you popular just get pushed
- 29:19Speaker 6: over here.
- 29:21Speaker 1: But here's the light at the end of the tunnel.
- 29:23Speaker 1: Tunnel is they have it's so many licenses that they
- 29:29Speaker 1: can't charge a subscription based service because it would be
- 29:34Speaker 1: too much. It's too much, it's too much legal ees
- 29:37Speaker 1: to deal with.
- 29:38Speaker 7: I'm curious if that the loophole is coming back under
- 29:43Speaker 7: a new name and new branding.
- 29:45Speaker 6: That's that's that's what it feels.
- 29:52Speaker 8: No, no, no, no, I just I just felt the
- 29:54Speaker 8: outrage when I saw CODs next door.
- 29:56Speaker 1: Yeah, it was one of the first things I said, Well,
- 29:59Speaker 1: if they have Kyle and Chicken, and I'm looking through
- 30:02Speaker 1: the list and I'm like Cole with Chicken. K oh
- 30:05Speaker 1: no oh no.
- 30:10Speaker 8: So here's my question, what is going What are they
- 30:13Speaker 8: putting on Cartoon Network.
- 30:15Speaker 1: They still have the new stuff of whatever shows they do,
- 30:20Speaker 1: but just that I think it looks like everything from
- 30:24Speaker 1: the nineties in two thousands and then going back is migrating,
- 30:32Speaker 1: like because I see it, like I said that boomerang,
- 30:34Speaker 1: like you would think you would expect to see some
- 30:36Speaker 1: of these shows migrate over the boomerang like when Boomerang started,
- 30:40Speaker 1: they had like old Hannah, Barbara Crusts, yeah, everything, and
- 30:45Speaker 1: they and they had enough catalog that they could just
- 30:47Speaker 1: run stuff. Same with Looney Tunes. It's enough of the
- 30:50Speaker 1: catalog they could just run stuff. So you know, certain
- 30:55Speaker 1: shows like we're twenty twenty six now, so you figure
- 30:57Speaker 1: anything from the nineties can slowly start being integrated into Boomerang,
- 31:01Speaker 1: you would figure.
- 31:05Speaker 7: And the thing is, you got too much newer two
- 31:08Speaker 7: thousands and twenty ten stuff that ends up getting on Boomerang,
- 31:11Speaker 7: So there's not enough room for the stuff that Boomerang
- 31:16Speaker 7: was built for. Like I used to take my car
- 31:18Speaker 7: to the shop. Boomerang was running the Looney to the
- 31:21Speaker 7: show and that show was from twenty eleven, and that
- 31:24Speaker 7: show it got moved. I think that was one of
- 31:26Speaker 7: the first things they grabbed when HBO Max did the
- 31:28Speaker 7: Great Purge.
- 31:29Speaker 6: This year.
- 31:31Speaker 7: And they said that show by itself was doing fantastic,
- 31:34Speaker 7: So I guess they just I don't know if these
- 31:35Speaker 7: were all up for grabs or they're just like, we'll
- 31:38Speaker 7: take them if y'all are homeless. But like shout out
- 31:40Speaker 7: Patrick Warburton, I've seen him recently, right, mister Warburton. I've
- 31:44Speaker 7: seen him post recently like a fan art of everything
- 31:47Speaker 7: going over there because he just happy his show has somewhere.
- 31:51Speaker 6: To exist again. And then recently he had posted.
- 31:54Speaker 7: Like some more art of what they were gonna do
- 31:56Speaker 7: with like Galactic K and D, and he's like, I
- 31:59Speaker 7: don't know what brought it back up. Well, since the
- 32:01Speaker 7: conversations coming up again, here's more stuff we showed at
- 32:03Speaker 7: a panel recently. They had like shots of the Treehouse
- 32:07Speaker 7: and I think at older number four talking at number one,
- 32:10Speaker 7: and it was so they had they had more plans
- 32:13Speaker 7: and outside of them two teasers they dropped.
- 32:15Speaker 6: So this might get some of these shows back to life.
- 32:18Speaker 6: I don't know.
- 32:19Speaker 1: I will say this because I've gleaned that too before
- 32:23Speaker 1: a thing here and there, you know something that catches
- 32:26Speaker 1: my eye and I'm like, okay, Like the like Kevi
- 32:28Speaker 1: on Stage and Tony Baker's tour, first season of their
- 32:31Speaker 1: their tour that they're currently on is on there, and
- 32:34Speaker 1: I watched a few episodes of that. But you're right,
- 32:38Speaker 1: a lot of what it was known for was the
- 32:40Speaker 1: trash stuff, the trash acting, oh my god, oh my god,
- 32:47Speaker 1: the dialogue, the writing, the acting, the stunt work. I'm like, look,
- 32:57Speaker 1: I I have watched enough wrestling that I can take
- 33:08Speaker 1: a hit and make it look real. I've done some
- 33:12Speaker 1: stunt work. I'm no Gary Peeples, but I've done I've
- 33:19Speaker 1: done some light stunt work where I'm just like, I
- 33:21Speaker 1: can take a hit, I can take it, I can
- 33:23Speaker 1: make it look like I got shot whatever. But this,
- 33:32Speaker 1: come on, sell it. I'm not saying you gotta oversell
- 33:37Speaker 1: it like the Rock or Rin Flair, but sell it.
- 33:42Speaker 6: Yeah. I'm just like, if it's just an ad.
- 33:45Speaker 7: Ad base place where you can sign up for free
- 33:48Speaker 7: and they get this boost, they're going to try to
- 33:50Speaker 7: do something with it.
- 33:52Speaker 5: Yes, it cannot eat.
- 33:56Speaker 6: Zeus was supposed to be this great place and just
- 33:58Speaker 6: a bunch of stuff went bad.
- 34:00Speaker 1: That's yeah.
- 34:01Speaker 6: And that's the thing.
- 34:02Speaker 7: It used to be in competition with Zeus, and then
- 34:04Speaker 7: they got the Zoos stuff out of here. Here comes
- 34:06Speaker 7: the Cartoon Network catalog, and I'm curious to what they're
- 34:09Speaker 7: going to do with this boost and ratings, because it's
- 34:12Speaker 7: it's got to do something. I refuse to believe they're
- 34:15Speaker 7: just gonna sit on that and not try to monopolize
- 34:18Speaker 7: it in some way.
- 34:20Speaker 6: I mean, if these shows get like.
- 34:22Speaker 7: A boost and say, hey, maybe we could revisit that. Cool,
- 34:25Speaker 7: But like this, what's the master playing there?
- 34:29Speaker 1: That's the that's the key that that's the real question.
- 34:32Speaker 1: Like we know that the person who owns it has
- 34:36Speaker 1: a habit of bringing in like we've seen it with
- 34:40Speaker 1: Fox during the nineties we had Martin, we had living
- 34:43Speaker 1: single and over there we had upn we had girlfriends
- 34:46Speaker 1: and that hire back catalog and stuff. We've seen it happen.
- 34:50Speaker 1: And when they get the faces that they want, that's
- 34:53Speaker 1: when they migrate over and say, all right, let's move
- 34:57Speaker 1: this out the way or cancel it. Now we're in
- 34:59Speaker 1: stres so it's not canceling anymore. It's let's just bury it.
- 35:06Speaker 1: It can be there, but let's just push it to
- 35:09Speaker 1: the back.
- 35:11Speaker 5: Here's which we.
- 35:12Speaker 1: How many how many times do we say, hey, black
- 35:15Speaker 1: creatives who had some some speculative fiction, who have some
- 35:20Speaker 1: sci fi projects, come over the blurred station. You're not
- 35:26Speaker 1: getting pushed in the back. You still get to own
- 35:28Speaker 1: your product, your your IP. We just want to be
- 35:31Speaker 1: able to distribute it. That's what you're looking for, is distribution, Right,
- 35:38Speaker 1: they'll distribute, They'll distribute it over there, for like a
- 35:42Speaker 1: couple of weeks, and then you will hear nothing else.
- 35:44Speaker 8: Now you also think about this for a second. And
- 35:48Speaker 8: I know, I know too far it's very aware of things.
- 35:52Speaker 8: But Chris, I think you and I remember this. December
- 35:56Speaker 8: nineteen ninety two, when Cartoon Network first debuted and the
- 36:02Speaker 8: Moxie Show came out, we knew that this was going
- 36:06Speaker 8: to be something magical because we now have an outlet
- 36:11Speaker 8: for all of the cartoons that we could not find
- 36:14Speaker 8: anywhere else and could not watch anywhere else, and that
- 36:18Speaker 8: became the standard. And then when it came up with Boomerang,
- 36:21Speaker 8: that was even better because we could still have that
- 36:24Speaker 8: retro vibe going back to them, but you now had
- 36:28Speaker 8: a separate channel to give us that versus Okay, you
- 36:32Speaker 8: want to you want to bring new cartoons, new creations.
- 36:35Speaker 5: And things like that.
- 36:36Speaker 8: Yeah, seeing this exodus makes me think that, oh, all
- 36:41Speaker 8: of a sudden, now people want to be retro. They
- 36:43Speaker 8: want to see what it does yah to capture the past,
- 36:47Speaker 8: and you want to go back to the past or
- 36:49Speaker 8: where it was. And I think that's why that happened
- 36:52Speaker 8: with too because and I hate seeing that word. Now,
- 36:55Speaker 8: I gotta I gotta wash my mouth out with lie.
- 37:00Speaker 1: Strong stuff it is.
- 37:02Speaker 5: That's a nasty word. I said what I said. But
- 37:06Speaker 5: for them to do that, they're.
- 37:07Speaker 8: Trying to capitalize on the on the appeal of anything
- 37:11Speaker 8: retro or anything from the past, because all the everything else,
- 37:14Speaker 8: like you said, is hot garbage. They're trying to appeal
- 37:18Speaker 8: to a particular demographic or a particular age group.
- 37:22Speaker 6: You figure.
- 37:23Speaker 1: You figure at the time Cartoon Network premiered, which was
- 37:27Speaker 1: ninety two, was around the time we still had cartoon
- 37:33Speaker 1: Saturday morning cartoons from the three big networks, ABC, NBC
- 37:39Speaker 1: and CBS cartoon and they slowly and then in Fox
- 37:44Speaker 1: in Fox, and it's also big four now, and they
- 37:49Speaker 1: slowly migrated them out. NBC was the first one, and
- 37:53Speaker 1: then ABC followed shortly after, and then CBS was right
- 37:58Speaker 1: in that same time when the Fox was the only
- 38:00Speaker 1: one holding on, and then they slowly migrate. By this time,
- 38:05Speaker 1: Cartoon Network has already supplanted itself. It's like, this is
- 38:09Speaker 1: the thing, this is the place you want to be.
- 38:11Speaker 1: This is some of the stuff. You can catch, some
- 38:13Speaker 1: retro stuff, you can catch some really new stuff. And
- 38:17Speaker 1: here we are and now we're in a new age.
- 38:20Speaker 1: And like you said, they're trying, and there's nothing wrong
- 38:23Speaker 1: with capturing that retro, capturing that light, capturing that moment
- 38:27Speaker 1: in time, there's nothing wrong with that. We just see
- 38:30Speaker 1: the patterns. If you really pay attention, we see the patterns.
- 38:35Speaker 1: They're like, what are you up to? Because like, what
- 38:39Speaker 1: are you up to? Like I'm seeing what you're doing,
- 38:42Speaker 1: but what are you up to? What is your end game?
- 38:46Speaker 6: You know?
- 38:46Speaker 7: That's something like this feels like because I remember slowly
- 38:51Speaker 7: kind of when the transition happened, because I was I
- 38:54Speaker 7: had to be like elementary and middle school when you know,
- 38:58Speaker 7: you had girlfriends on the CW, but that it was
- 39:00Speaker 7: forced to live on through the spinoff, which was the
- 39:03Speaker 7: game on the CW, and the game was like a
- 39:05Speaker 7: dope show for three seasons and then they killed it
- 39:08Speaker 7: off and then BT brought it back into a soap
- 39:10Speaker 7: opera and you didn't see a football again for like
- 39:12Speaker 7: eighty episodes.
- 39:14Speaker 1: Yeah, I checked it out. I'm like, what the hell happened?
- 39:18Speaker 1: Is this what they asked for?
- 39:21Speaker 3: What I want?
- 39:23Speaker 1: You go back the same characters and I'm like, but
- 39:26Speaker 1: it's not funny.
- 39:27Speaker 7: You notice everybody like like like like young black ages
- 39:31Speaker 7: have the hot guy era in phase, like everybody's always
- 39:34Speaker 7: working out and they had the shirtless episode which they're
- 39:37Speaker 7: playing football.
- 39:37Speaker 6: I get it.
- 39:38Speaker 7: Halfway through the show, you can see everybody gave up
- 39:40Speaker 7: because they're all just wearing hoodies. Like throughout the rest
- 39:42Speaker 7: of it, like the last five seasons, everybody just has
- 39:46Speaker 7: some big T shirts. And I'm like, y'all clearly just
- 39:48Speaker 7: stopped giving shit. Like nobody's working out anymore. Everybody's hiding
- 39:52Speaker 7: like a pouch. It's and I don't blame you. These
- 39:54Speaker 7: scripts are ass like it's like the cw GA. It
- 40:00Speaker 7: was great, but then I don't know why, you know
- 40:03Speaker 7: what it is? I think I think game got canceled,
- 40:05Speaker 7: like right when the arroverse started.
- 40:07Speaker 1: Yes, yes, which is you know what, that's the universe.
- 40:11Speaker 1: I actually want to revisit, like rewatched some of them series, okay,
- 40:19Speaker 1: you know, like it's on Netflix, like The Flash is there,
- 40:22Speaker 1: and I think Supergirl is there. It's definitely Supergirl. I
- 40:24Speaker 1: definitely want to rewatch.
- 40:26Speaker 8: I think Black Black Lightnings there too, Black Like.
- 40:28Speaker 1: Ning is there. I think they're all. I think they're
- 40:30Speaker 1: all there. I think they're all.
- 40:31Speaker 6: I need to finish Black light Ning.
- 40:32Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, I don't know if we get some renewals
- 40:36Speaker 7: out of this, I'll be happy for it, Like like
- 40:39Speaker 7: teen Titans is needed a I mean, they kind of
- 40:42Speaker 7: wrapped up that cliffhanger already.
- 40:43Speaker 6: It's just nobody picked up the comic that explained it.
- 40:46Speaker 7: But yeah, like ended on the most awkward ass episode, like, hey,
- 40:49Speaker 7: this girl who died came back on a technicality and
- 40:52Speaker 7: is just lying, but we're just gonna pretend that that's fine.
- 40:56Speaker 7: And then they just recycled that whole story and nobody
- 40:58Speaker 7: read into Young Justice.
- 41:01Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm sorry, I just babe think there's a lot
- 41:06Speaker 1: of Young Justice talk lately. I don't know why it
- 41:09Speaker 1: showed up on my timeline. It came here tonight because
- 41:12Speaker 1: it was somebody last night I seen on the Instagram
- 41:15Speaker 1: who who was acting like he was acting like the
- 41:18Speaker 1: exact and someone who created the show. He's like, imagine
- 41:21Speaker 1: a show and like and he broke down the whole
- 41:24Speaker 1: Young Justice thing. He said, and it's so great that
- 41:27Speaker 1: we take a break. And it was like, oh, like
- 41:29Speaker 1: we do a time skip? He was like, oh, like
- 41:31Speaker 1: maybe a couple of weeks, a couple of months, maybe
- 41:34Speaker 1: a year, he says, no, five years. And I said
- 41:38Speaker 1: that's exactly the hell the hell that is exactly Young Justice.
- 41:46Speaker 1: They they canceled it and we didn't get a new
- 41:50Speaker 1: one until five years later. And that's what they did
- 41:53Speaker 1: with the time skip. It was five years later. I said, come,
- 41:58Speaker 1: don't get me. Young Justice is a but why why
- 42:03Speaker 1: do huge time skip?
- 42:05Speaker 7: Yeah, because they had like a DC block on Carson
- 42:08Speaker 7: over a little bit little they were just killing them
- 42:10Speaker 7: shows off. So yeah, Justice was Young Justice was out
- 42:13Speaker 7: after two seasons. They wrapped up that Green Lantern animated series,
- 42:16Speaker 7: which apparently is connected into it now. Thankfully, they like
- 42:21Speaker 7: I think with Justice League Action and Teen Titans. Teen
- 42:24Speaker 7: Titans Goal was like the five minutes short that played
- 42:27Speaker 7: between the episodes.
- 42:28Speaker 6: It then became the franchise filler.
- 42:32Speaker 1: And did the Batman show that they not the Batman
- 42:34Speaker 1: but Batman, which was like the c G I CG
- 42:37Speaker 1: Batman had like one that was that was a Yeah,
- 42:41Speaker 1: it was definitely the way because they they the way.
- 42:45Speaker 1: They were, yeah, we're gonna air it at midnight, and
- 42:47Speaker 1: I'm like what.
- 42:49Speaker 7: Like they did the same thing Mystery Incorporated. That show
- 42:51Speaker 7: was great, but then like the entire season of two,
- 42:54Speaker 7: season two righted like six am Monday through Friday until
- 42:58Speaker 7: they like burned all the episodes off and then it
- 43:00Speaker 7: was just never seen it gat until Netflix got ahold
- 43:02Speaker 7: of it. So I get why people are happy that
- 43:05Speaker 7: these shows are gonna be on that app because this
- 43:08Speaker 7: is probably the first time they've had that that collection again,
- 43:12Speaker 7: same thing with Avatar ended up on Netflix. That was
- 43:14Speaker 7: the first time you could ever watch Cora and Aang
- 43:17Speaker 7: in the same space back to back.
- 43:19Speaker 8: Right, Well, network that got the Johnny Test treatment.
- 43:23Speaker 5: You remember the Johnny Test.
- 43:25Speaker 8: Yes, seventeen hours of Johnny Test and then you got
- 43:29Speaker 8: Cops and then you got Family Guy and then you
- 43:33Speaker 8: got Cops.
- 43:34Speaker 5: And that's how it felt.
- 43:36Speaker 1: I felt like I was g FOURDTV and ridiculousness. That's
- 43:41Speaker 1: what it was.
- 43:42Speaker 6: I don't know why I liked Johnny Test until they
- 43:46Speaker 6: changed the dogs.
- 43:47Speaker 7: Voice actor because that was overly noticeable. But I just
- 43:50Speaker 7: and then there's a whole like second series on Netflix.
- 43:52Speaker 7: I found out, like, yeah, they like rebrand like once
- 43:57Speaker 7: it ended on Carson and everything, had like a whole
- 43:58Speaker 7: second series like a reboot on Netflix Exclusive, and I'm
- 44:03Speaker 7: just like, damn, when did this ship run? And had
- 44:06Speaker 7: like I think three or six seasons or something crazy.
- 44:08Speaker 7: I think it's still going. Yeah, it's to see where
- 44:13Speaker 7: these places end up because their own companies leave them homeless.
- 44:17Speaker 1: G four yet, even the rebirth of G four was
- 44:21Speaker 1: not it was not what it was supposed to be.
- 44:23Speaker 1: We were like, we were so excited G four was
- 44:26Speaker 1: supposed to come back, and then they were like, it's back,
- 44:28Speaker 1: and like they brought the same people back. But when
- 44:30Speaker 1: they you've seen it, I'm like, the vibe was not
- 44:32Speaker 1: the same. It just wasn't the same. And you know why, right,
- 44:40Speaker 1: everybody had like bad, funky contracts. It was funky contracts.
- 44:49Speaker 1: What else the all the gaming expos they pretty much
- 44:52Speaker 1: started dissipating.
- 44:54Speaker 8: They could not get the same people back because they screwed.
- 44:56Speaker 1: Them over before. Hylia Mudd. I'm like, so, i was like,
- 45:01Speaker 1: you're not getting Olivia mone back. I'm sorry.
- 45:06Speaker 8: I mean you had shows like what Cheats, ex Play,
- 45:10Speaker 8: Attack of the Show.
- 45:12Speaker 5: It was an arcade.
- 45:14Speaker 1: They used to they used to do what we're currently
- 45:17Speaker 1: doing with Blur. With blur Con, they used to have
- 45:20Speaker 1: a live stream for San Diego Comic Con all three days.
- 45:24Speaker 1: Actually no, they're there for the whole week because San
- 45:27Speaker 1: Diego Comic con is longer, but they it wasn't the
- 45:31Speaker 1: same vibe because it was like you had somebody on
- 45:36Speaker 1: the floor talking to a lot of cons players and
- 45:38Speaker 1: then you had like people had different booths doing breakdown.
- 45:42Speaker 1: So it was there, but it wasn't there, And I'm
- 45:47Speaker 1: like you started noticing it. Actually it was. It was
- 45:49Speaker 1: some cosplayers. We actually noticed that. We knew that was
- 45:53Speaker 1: in the background, Like, yo, get on answer, Hey were
- 45:56Speaker 1: you and San Diego count Yeah, I'm like I seen
- 45:59Speaker 1: your storm like what so Yeah, but it's it's I know,
- 46:07Speaker 1: it's a changing of the guard when it comes to
- 46:09Speaker 1: these types of things. And yes, for to watch something
- 46:15Speaker 1: like that, yeah, I'm not gonna say I'm not gonna
- 46:16Speaker 1: watch it. Of course, I'm gonna watch kids next door.
- 46:18Speaker 1: You cann't zalin and shout and showdown of course. You
- 46:23Speaker 1: know those are just certain like it's hard to catch
- 46:26Speaker 1: them anywhere else. Yeah you know, so yeah, am I
- 46:30Speaker 1: gonna watch it? Yes? The upside to it is they
- 46:34Speaker 1: can't they can't charge.
- 46:35Speaker 8: You, So I don't want to watch it on there
- 46:38Speaker 8: because it's it's not gonna be the same. You're literally
- 46:41Speaker 8: just trying to appeal to a now thirty second attention
- 46:46Speaker 8: span generation.
- 46:49Speaker 1: Oh you forgotten me, David wire gen X.
- 46:52Speaker 5: I'm not talking about because I ain't.
- 46:54Speaker 1: Bullshit is different.
- 46:57Speaker 7: They're trying to get us and us with kids and
- 47:00Speaker 7: say try to be instead of the tablet like it's
- 47:04Speaker 7: you know, like like they're trying to help in that saying.
- 47:07Speaker 6: They're having their own version of that fight that Woody
- 47:09Speaker 6: is in that Toy Story movie. I'm probably not gonna
- 47:11Speaker 6: watch it.
- 47:13Speaker 1: I didn't grab it, but I didn't grab the trailer.
- 47:17Speaker 1: But I did see the trailer. I understand. I'm like, okay,
- 47:21Speaker 1: I understand now because too far even you had the question,
- 47:24Speaker 1: It's like, how are they doing a Toy Story five
- 47:27Speaker 1: if Woody is is back with with what I'm.
- 47:30Speaker 7: Saying, y'all, y'all left Woody and didn't bother the check
- 47:32Speaker 7: like clearly like body.
- 47:36Speaker 1: But it made, but it made it. But it made
- 47:38Speaker 1: But that trailer explained it. It was just like, oh,
- 47:41Speaker 1: that's okay, he's fine, he's fine.
- 47:44Speaker 6: I'll never forget I was in that.
- 47:46Speaker 7: I was in the fourth movie My Homegirls next to
- 47:48Speaker 7: me crying like boo who at the end, and I'm
- 47:50Speaker 7: like this fucking sucks, Like like she's boohoo crimes.
- 47:54Speaker 6: Like you're not saying I'm like this this no hate,
- 47:57Speaker 6: I hate everything about this. We did not need this
- 48:01Speaker 6: at all.
- 48:03Speaker 1: I was like, you got us with three when we
- 48:05Speaker 1: thought they were all gonna get burned alive. And then.
- 48:09Speaker 7: Meanwhile Disney is like, we will sit here and just
- 48:12Speaker 7: sit on shows until we feel like putting them on
- 48:14Speaker 7: because the Weekenders and House and Mouse will just never
- 48:16Speaker 7: come to Disney.
- 48:17Speaker 6: Plus, yeah, weever put that all on YouTube? Good luck.
- 48:20Speaker 6: I hope the mouse doesn't fight you, right, So.
- 48:24Speaker 1: Uh, we do have a quick trailer though. Aerial Night
- 48:27Speaker 1: has a new game. It's a Black owned game, Black
- 48:31Speaker 1: game developer. It's called drop Shot. Check this out. Yeah, no,
- 49:26Speaker 1: I don't think not gonna ry.
- 49:40Speaker 5: That's interesting graphics.
- 49:43Speaker 1: I like it. I like it. It looks it looks
- 49:45Speaker 1: really interesting. I like that.
- 49:47Speaker 7: Yeah, it's kind of like that, like the kind of
- 49:50Speaker 7: an arcade retroesque feel to it. I've actually been playing.
- 49:52Speaker 7: I'll find a little bit of it yesterday. That's actually.
- 49:56Speaker 1: Of course, it looks like it looks like he's playing now.
- 50:00Speaker 7: It is like, yeah, I'm pulling it up because like
- 50:04Speaker 7: I don't know what happened when the PS five came out, y'all,
- 50:06Speaker 7: like they forgot they could put sounds in the damn controller.
- 50:11Speaker 7: So the fact that he actually went the extra mile
- 50:13Speaker 7: and like used all the features for whatever console you're playing,
- 50:16Speaker 7: I appreciate it because that.
- 50:18Speaker 6: Was like the whole selling point of the PS four, like, oh.
- 50:20Speaker 7: You can hear the sounds and the controllers or when
- 50:23Speaker 7: you find special dialogues and last of us, the voice
- 50:26Speaker 7: notes come out through like the PS four and then
- 50:28Speaker 7: it's like the five came out. It's like we're not
- 50:30Speaker 7: using that, we're not using themes anymore. So when I
- 50:35Speaker 7: heard like the sound of its coming out of like
- 50:36Speaker 7: the I was like, right, this used to be. This
- 50:38Speaker 7: was a factor to encourage people to buy the damn
- 50:42Speaker 7: thing said shout out the air all night and uh
- 50:44Speaker 7: Benji were actually in my chat yesterday when I played
- 50:47Speaker 7: it on stream. It's actually really fun. It so on PlayStation,
- 50:51Speaker 7: Xbox Free, if you have it on game Pass or Steam,
- 50:54Speaker 7: Epic Store pending. Apparently it's moving a little bit slower there,
- 50:58Speaker 7: but they're working on it. It's only twenty bucks. So yeah,
- 51:02Speaker 7: you are a black protagonist. You got big by a dragon.
- 51:05Speaker 7: You're now you're chasing dragons with mercenaries, and it's it's
- 51:09Speaker 7: all the gun without the run, but like free fall fun.
- 51:12Speaker 7: So it's just it's just completely ridiculous imagination stuff out
- 51:17Speaker 7: there doesn't take it take itself too seriously. And then
- 51:22Speaker 7: if you want to play with like kids or anything,
- 51:24Speaker 7: it's like E ten plus it's I'm already halfway through it.
- 51:27Speaker 7: You can beat the whole thing in like three hours.
- 51:29Speaker 7: Really is how silly Because I was playing it on
- 51:33Speaker 7: stream and I was like, all right, I'm already twenty
- 51:35Speaker 7: five and the fifty levels in let me not eat,
- 51:38Speaker 7: because like it's real. It's like real quick, like you're
- 51:41Speaker 7: falling kind of slow, but literally there is a finish line.
- 51:44Speaker 7: So the goal is to try to like take out
- 51:45Speaker 7: all the mercenaries and get these power ups, which is
- 51:48Speaker 7: you saw the many finger guns or like the rubber
- 51:50Speaker 7: duck bombs, which I don't know why keep getting so
- 51:53Speaker 7: many of those, or sometimes like fucking spiral the dragon
- 51:56Speaker 7: comes out and just zooms you through the level, but
- 51:58Speaker 7: then you you're and dragons and tanks and all kinds
- 52:02Speaker 7: of other crazy stuff. There was a there was a
- 52:06Speaker 7: trophy I got at one point called under six feet
- 52:08Speaker 7: and I was like, what the hell is that? And
- 52:09Speaker 7: then it was, oh, it's it's for popping twenty balloons.
- 52:16Speaker 7: So yeah, it's it's it's a lot of culture, culture,
- 52:20Speaker 7: code and stuff. And then it's hilarious. The protagonist looks
- 52:23Speaker 7: like kind of reminds me of like the people they're
- 52:25Speaker 7: throwing the background like a DDR Max game.
- 52:29Speaker 6: Jesus, it's it's fun.
- 52:32Speaker 3: I know.
- 52:32Speaker 7: I think it was just him and him and Benji.
- 52:34Speaker 7: I think it's just those two and whoever did their soundtrack,
- 52:36Speaker 7: which was great. So it's a small, small team, but
- 52:39Speaker 7: they managed to get this thing everywhere. So if you
- 52:41Speaker 7: need something interesting to play or different, please go support it. Actually,
- 52:46Speaker 7: like I genuinely had a lot lot more fun than
- 52:48Speaker 7: I was expecting with this.
- 52:50Speaker 1: Yeah, shout out to Aerial Night and the team over
- 52:52Speaker 1: there with that for that game. It looks like a
- 52:55Speaker 1: lot of fun. Amout. Hell, I still gotta splay Split
- 52:57Speaker 1: Fiction Split Faction. I gotta give me another controller. I
- 53:01Speaker 1: was like, do you have to play it with two people?
- 53:05Speaker 6: Is there? Yeah?
- 53:06Speaker 1: It's two player?
- 53:07Speaker 6: Okay. I was like, I haven't in my catalog, I haven't.

- 57:12Speaker 1: about the state of how Milestone was created. Tonight's gonna
- 57:19Speaker 1: be some of the characters you know from from Milestone.
- 57:23Speaker 1: We're gonna start with Icon. Many people are more synonymous
- 57:29Speaker 1: with Static, but.
- 57:31Speaker 8: It started with Icon Augustus Freeman.
- 57:34Speaker 1: Augustus so uh, maybe I think what I'm gonna do is,
- 57:39Speaker 1: I'll let you start with Icon first and then I'll
- 57:43Speaker 1: go and do Static.
- 57:47Speaker 4: Lit me oh bless you.
- 57:50Speaker 5: He's gonna go far life well a lot of people
- 57:55Speaker 5: I really don't know that much about about Icon. Icon
- 58:00Speaker 5: is not human.
- 58:01Speaker 8: Let's put that on the table right there. He has
- 58:04Speaker 8: come from a he's come from a planet, and it's
- 58:06Speaker 8: basically his whole story is almost it's almost like a
- 58:11Speaker 8: card carbon copy of what happened with Superman, except he
- 58:16Speaker 8: was found by a slave and he assimilated to uh,
- 58:22Speaker 8: to that life, and he grew up and she was
- 58:25Speaker 8: give him the name Augustus Freeman and he was just
- 58:31Speaker 8: really curious about how life was, so he assimilated to
- 58:34Speaker 8: being a black man.
- 58:35Speaker 5: Now his power set is amazing.
- 58:40Speaker 8: But what sets him apart from all the other characters
- 58:43Speaker 8: is the fact that he looks human, he acts human,
- 58:46Speaker 8: but he has alien values that are being implemented into
- 58:52Speaker 8: human values and a lot of people don't realize that.
- 58:56Speaker 8: He's also Republican, so he has conservative views. But what
- 59:00Speaker 8: makes this different from this is that even though he
- 59:03Speaker 8: is conservative, he is open minded. He is willing to
- 59:06Speaker 8: listen and willing to learn as he wants to do
- 59:10Speaker 8: the right thing going forward.
- 59:13Speaker 5: This is one of the most interesting characters. Pretty much
- 59:20Speaker 5: pretty much our count.
- 59:22Speaker 1: Was Colin Powe was a Republican. He was a general
- 59:25Speaker 1: in the army, high ranking general and but open minded,
- 59:29Speaker 1: I mean, I mean, really being honest. Icon is just
- 59:32Speaker 1: Republican and title only because he wasn't entitled only at
- 59:38Speaker 1: this point. But I see, y'all, but point made.
- 59:41Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 59:43Speaker 8: So as he came up as a character, he he
- 59:47Speaker 8: encountered Raquel, and Raquel became his voice of reason. She
- 59:52Speaker 8: became in a lot of ways, his mentor of the
- 59:55Speaker 8: real world because he had no idea about a lot
- 59:59Speaker 8: of things.
- 59:59Speaker 5: He was basically a recluse.
- 1:00:01Speaker 8: He didn't go out, he didn't connect with people because
- 1:00:04Speaker 8: he wasn't sure how to vibe with them. But he
- 1:00:07Speaker 8: knew that when trouble came about, he wanted to use
- 1:00:10Speaker 8: his abilities. She became his Jiminy Cricket to his Pinocchio,
- 1:00:18Speaker 8: and she told him the real deal about life, and
- 1:00:21Speaker 8: he listened.
- 1:00:23Speaker 1: She would get in his face if you're an alien,
- 1:00:26Speaker 1: I don't care, and she was like she was a teenager.
- 1:00:29Speaker 8: She was seventeen when he first met her, and the
- 1:00:34Speaker 8: adventures that they went on, But during the course of
- 1:00:37Speaker 8: that entire run of Icon, he never took his ear
- 1:00:42Speaker 8: away from her, and he always listened. It wasn't it
- 1:00:45Speaker 8: wasn't lip service. He took to heart everything that she said.
- 1:00:51Speaker 1: He was extremely, extremely open minded, and it came off
- 1:00:58Speaker 1: more from kill a k a rocket. From her point
- 1:01:02Speaker 1: of view, it was like, how can you step back?
- 1:01:06Speaker 1: X y z x y z x y z. From
- 1:01:09Speaker 1: his point of view was like, I've seen a lot
- 1:01:11Speaker 1: of things in the in the the long time that
- 1:01:15Speaker 1: I've been here, and I'm not sure how to really
- 1:01:18Speaker 1: interact with a lot of people with a lot of situations.
- 1:01:23Speaker 1: I mean, the man was found by a slave of
- 1:01:25Speaker 1: all people. Mm hmm. Imagine waking up in the world
- 1:01:33Speaker 1: like that, and like, I can do a lot of stuff.
- 1:01:37Speaker 1: But we almost had Uncle Ruggins with powers. We really did.
- 1:01:44Speaker 1: If you think about it, we were in this close
- 1:01:47Speaker 1: to having Uncle Ruggins with superman abilities in the world
- 1:01:54Speaker 1: where one where where a set of people are mistreated
- 1:01:57Speaker 1: and m hm and he's like this, this, this can't
- 1:02:02Speaker 1: be right and and and as many people would react
- 1:02:08Speaker 1: because it's a knee jerk reaction, h well, you got
- 1:02:12Speaker 1: all these powers, like like Raquel said, you got all
- 1:02:16Speaker 1: these powers, why didn't you do something? Then? Hm ooh
- 1:02:21Speaker 1: that opens yeah, But that that's why I said. Now
- 1:02:25Speaker 1: it comes back to that argument counter argument. I can't
- 1:02:28Speaker 1: get involved because what will happened? But you have broken
- 1:02:30Speaker 1: into your house and you decided to regulate in that
- 1:02:33Speaker 1: kind of same situation. And then with a model like
- 1:02:39Speaker 1: and you could see and the thing is you could
- 1:02:41Speaker 1: see both sides. You could you could see both sides,
- 1:02:44Speaker 1: which is which is an argument that I can't even say,
- 1:02:48Speaker 1: that's an argument that's a conversation that has hardly even
- 1:02:51Speaker 1: had that they can see that as the reader, you
- 1:02:55Speaker 1: could see both sides of their story. I mean, we
- 1:02:59Speaker 1: can't kill that was right, Kon was right.
- 1:03:03Speaker 4: It was mean but one.
- 1:03:06Speaker 5: But they balanced each other.
- 1:03:08Speaker 1: That was the thing. They balance each other.
- 1:03:10Speaker 8: They balanced each other because she was real world. She
- 1:03:13Speaker 8: was She's from Earth, She's lived that life. He is assimilating,
- 1:03:18Speaker 8: so he only gets part of the story. But she
- 1:03:21Speaker 8: was one that filled in the blanks, especially when he
- 1:03:24Speaker 8: when they had the discussions, he had questions. She came
- 1:03:27Speaker 8: at him the street street philosophical.
- 1:03:30Speaker 5: Side, Why does this, why didn't you do this?
- 1:03:33Speaker 4: What about that?
- 1:03:34Speaker 8: And it made him stop and go, Okay, I may
- 1:03:37Speaker 8: not get at all, but I'm getting forty two issues.
- 1:03:46Speaker 1: Yep, they may of ninety three Donae McDuffie and M D.
- 1:03:52Speaker 1: Bright who was the artist eighteen thirty nine is when
- 1:03:59Speaker 1: he crashed landed on you're right, you're right now. He
- 1:04:03Speaker 1: was great. It was a great Yin and Yang representation
- 1:04:06Speaker 1: exactly exactly And you don't get that a lot, right,
- 1:04:11Speaker 1: But see that tells you how these characters are being written.
- 1:04:17Speaker 1: It's almost a buddy cop type situation. It was like
- 1:04:23Speaker 1: like how many times have we seen forty eight hours
- 1:04:27Speaker 1: Bely Hills Kyle like you one one somewhat of a
- 1:04:30Speaker 1: wild card can get the job done, and the other
- 1:04:34Speaker 1: side is like, oh no, we're straight laced and by
- 1:04:36Speaker 1: the book. But it works. We see leave the weapon
- 1:04:41Speaker 1: by the collateral damage, however, but put the job gets done.
- 1:04:46Speaker 1: That's true.
- 1:04:48Speaker 8: We should wonder who was Jackie Chan and who was
- 1:04:50Speaker 8: Chris Tucker?
- 1:04:53Speaker 1: Oh, and they really should have done Let's be Jackie
- 1:04:56Speaker 1: Chan be icon because like, be the most straight faced
- 1:04:58Speaker 1: person while rocking. You can almost dang near hear that.
- 1:05:01Speaker 1: You can almost hear the shots being taken. You almost
- 1:05:08Speaker 1: hear the shots being taken. His icons just straight lace,
- 1:05:10Speaker 1: Like what what is that? What does that mean? Exactly?
- 1:05:15Speaker 1: You just see rocking combout nowhere? Man, it must be
- 1:05:18Speaker 1: nice that you and Jesus is the same graduating class.
- 1:05:20Speaker 1: That's all I'm saying. Yo, I can see rocking on time?
- 1:05:26Speaker 1: How old are you? Was you? Was you there to
- 1:05:28Speaker 1: change the first tire on the first vehicle? How hard
- 1:05:33Speaker 1: a tire on the stage coach? Really? So and so?
- 1:05:38Speaker 1: And to piggyback off of of of of maybe this
- 1:05:42Speaker 1: this man, this alien his power set rivals Superman, because
- 1:05:52Speaker 1: of course he's they're both aliens. Why not h hand
- 1:05:55Speaker 1: to hand combatant, well trained, armed, unarmed combatant, vast humans,
- 1:06:00Speaker 1: super human strengths, superhuman speed, reflexes, stamina, sensus, flight, nigh
- 1:06:05Speaker 1: inable vulnerability, durability, enhanced mental perception, regenerative healing factor, extraordinary longevity.
- 1:06:13Speaker 1: Because of course, we don't even know how old he
- 1:06:15Speaker 1: was when he CRASHMDED so will start there. Ability, ability
- 1:06:19Speaker 1: to generate and project positron energy blast this man? Can
- 1:06:26Speaker 1: we can we just say what he is? A problem?
- 1:06:31Speaker 1: Can problem to to the to the wrong people. He's
- 1:06:35Speaker 1: a problem. I mean, that's basically it. He's I mean,
- 1:06:38Speaker 1: don't get me wrong about Icon. He is a problem.
- 1:06:42Speaker 1: It's like no matter how you cut the mustard, he's
- 1:06:44Speaker 1: a problem. At the same time, he's a problem. At
- 1:06:48Speaker 1: the same time, he's very dated. This is why which
- 1:06:52Speaker 1: is about Rocket treat Rocket is a perfect compliment, a
- 1:06:56Speaker 1: perfect addition to him. Mm hmm. And I think this
- 1:07:00Speaker 1: is we we got to see parts of both characters.
- 1:07:05Speaker 1: I kind of in Rocket in the Young Justice series. Uh,
- 1:07:08Speaker 1: and imagine my face when he pops up and I'm like, yo,
- 1:07:13Speaker 1: I'm locked in. I was already locked in before, I'm
- 1:07:16Speaker 1: really locked in. Now I'm like, oh, we got eye
- 1:07:19Speaker 1: kind in here. Oh that's what k sit down and
- 1:07:24Speaker 1: watch this and that, and it would work especially for Rocket.
- 1:07:30Speaker 1: For Rocket's character is gonna be if a movie was
- 1:07:34Speaker 1: ever done. Oh man, the list will be as long
- 1:07:38Speaker 1: as if you were casting Storm. Really Obama, who I
- 1:07:43Speaker 1: would not give Superman He wouldn't take the past, definitely, Bbama.
- 1:07:48Speaker 6: No, we we would.
- 1:07:50Speaker 1: We're not giving out the passes. He wouldn't take the past.
- 1:07:53Speaker 1: Even if he gave him the past, he wouldn't take
- 1:07:55Speaker 1: the past.
- 1:07:56Speaker 5: We are not passing out any more passes that should
- 1:07:58Speaker 5: have been passing.
- 1:08:02Speaker 1: If you watch every Superman cartoon, there was one about
- 1:08:05Speaker 1: a black woman where Superman was terrified of her. I
- 1:08:10Speaker 1: can't remember the exact episode, but Superman, think about this.
- 1:08:14Speaker 1: A Kryptonian was scared of a black woman for checking
- 1:08:17Speaker 1: him as Superman, and Superman is scared of her. I
- 1:08:24Speaker 1: can tell you off the bat. He's scared of the sister,
- 1:08:28Speaker 1: and he's mindful of Lowess because Lowis can put him
- 1:08:30Speaker 1: in his place too exactly. He's like, it's not so
- 1:08:33Speaker 1: much putting him in his place, it's just I'm not
- 1:08:37Speaker 1: telling her to do anything, because she's going to do
- 1:08:39Speaker 1: exactly what she wanted to do. Yeah, so now Superman
- 1:08:44Speaker 1: wouldn't takee the N word pass a. Look, he Superman,
- 1:08:49Speaker 1: maybe a lot of things. He can get a plate.
- 1:08:51Speaker 1: He can definitely get a plate. Yeah, he gets a plate. Yeah.
- 1:08:55Speaker 5: But no, oh, you know it is Amanda Waller.
- 1:08:59Speaker 1: She is a problem. I don't like her, but she's
- 1:09:03Speaker 1: a problem at the same time. Not Superman. I can't
- 1:09:07Speaker 1: see I can't see him taking no. No, uh, you
- 1:09:11Speaker 1: said it lasted how many issues? Forty two?
- 1:09:13Speaker 5: You said forty two?
- 1:09:15Speaker 1: Forty two issues. So that's the equivalent of by today's standards, what.
- 1:09:21Speaker 8: Seventni series.
- 1:09:26Speaker 1: I was gonna say two. I was gonna say two arcs,
- 1:09:28Speaker 1: But let's go with that, because two good arcs at best,
- 1:09:34Speaker 1: maybe three to four if they're breaking him up, breaking
- 1:09:37Speaker 1: them up by eights. But a lot of filler Bama,
- 1:09:40Speaker 1: A lot of filler Bama Bama wouldn't take, or Bama
- 1:09:46Speaker 1: wouldn't take, but what okay Bama. Look from from one
- 1:09:50Speaker 1: role timee fan to another, think about Batman for a second.
- 1:09:55Speaker 1: People with people things, beings with powers are scared of
- 1:09:59Speaker 1: a sill human being. Dark Side says he fears him
- 1:10:03Speaker 1: more than Superman because he'll do the things that Superman
- 1:10:06Speaker 1: won't do. What does Batman need the end pass for
- 1:10:10Speaker 1: he is literally in black He is a walking Black
- 1:10:13Speaker 1: Air Force one with a cake. I'm just like, again, Sir,
- 1:10:19Speaker 1: I sir again, I say, Batman don't need it. The man,
- 1:10:25Speaker 1: the man is already intimidation factor alone, don't need it.
- 1:10:30Speaker 1: Mm hmmm. I'm just saying, let let's let's let let
- 1:10:33Speaker 1: that go. And besides, besides, uh, the only thing that
- 1:10:37Speaker 1: offsets Bruce is Catwoman.
- 1:10:40Speaker 6: We tell Bruce to offset some of his poverty in
- 1:10:43Speaker 6: our community, then then we can talk.
- 1:10:45Speaker 1: Then we can talk. Because he likes to eat his
- 1:10:47Speaker 1: burger with a forking knife. I understand why. See, I
- 1:10:52Speaker 1: can't trust somebody that eats eats a burger like that
- 1:10:54Speaker 1: when when you're in public, you know you got these
- 1:10:56Speaker 1: expensive suit I get.
- 1:10:57Speaker 8: It depends on where the burger is prepared, big how
- 1:11:03Speaker 8: in what country is prepared because I be damn I'm
- 1:11:05Speaker 8: gonna do that in the United States.
- 1:11:07Speaker 1: Because when I'm at because when I'm at work, there's
- 1:11:10Speaker 1: there's we have pizza at work, and I'm like, I
- 1:11:12Speaker 1: don't feel like dealing with all this greasy pizza forking
- 1:11:15Speaker 1: knife that's an insult. Crazy pizza. That is a that
- 1:11:18Speaker 1: is lazy cooking. It's the bottom.
- 1:11:21Speaker 7: And I'm like, it depends on it depends on the place,
- 1:11:24Speaker 7: because sometimes the grease is part of the experience, as
- 1:11:26Speaker 7: long as it's not as long as it's not drowning
- 1:11:29Speaker 7: in it.
- 1:11:32Speaker 1: I'm just I'm used to its point. To a certain extent,
- 1:11:36Speaker 1: I agree with that. But just you know, if you
- 1:11:38Speaker 1: just drowned in grease and oil, you just have no love.
- 1:11:42Speaker 1: That's that's not love.
- 1:11:44Speaker 5: Bama is reaching Bama. We just gonna stop.
- 1:11:49Speaker 4: Entertaining.
- 1:11:50Speaker 1: Woman need that.
- 1:11:52Speaker 5: Feed into that, do not.
- 1:11:56Speaker 7: Woman.
- 1:11:58Speaker 6: No Nubia question mark. I can't tell if she just
- 1:12:01Speaker 6: is tan or light skin.
- 1:12:03Speaker 1: Oh no, she's a system, was a whole system.
- 1:12:06Speaker 6: Maybe it's some girlfriend. I'm thinking of.
- 1:12:09Speaker 8: What I know.
- 1:12:10Speaker 7: Stephanie was right now, She's like, I thought, that's why
- 1:12:12Speaker 7: I put him together. I thought she was a red bone.
- 1:12:13Speaker 1: I didn't know anybody, say Uri Zuri. If not for
- 1:12:19Speaker 1: her mom, Zuri would have been named Nubia. Her first
- 1:12:21Speaker 1: thing would have been Nubia. I'll be honest with you
- 1:12:23Speaker 1: that if it was, if I had it my way,
- 1:12:24Speaker 1: Zia's first thing would be Nubia. So I thought it
- 1:12:27Speaker 1: was your way. That's what she got the name ZERI.
- 1:12:30Speaker 1: That was oh good lord, that that was a cop minse.
- 1:12:33Speaker 1: And so she was like, I love Zuri, but I
- 1:12:35Speaker 1: also loved Nubia, but you know, also wanted other names.
- 1:12:41Speaker 6: I thought that name was an executive decision.
- 1:12:46Speaker 1: Now hang on, door was open. I check first, Yeah,
- 1:13:04Speaker 1: check first.
- 1:13:10Speaker 5: That crater the neck was classic, y'all.
- 1:13:12Speaker 4: Let me tell you.
- 1:13:13Speaker 1: You would have seen the laundry basket fly across the road.
- 1:13:19Speaker 5: Click click, click, Oh.
- 1:13:21Speaker 1: My god, sometimes you got check first for your little
- 1:13:26Speaker 1: comment out, so.
- 1:13:28Speaker 5: You learn how to really fast.
- 1:13:30Speaker 1: So I gotta ask your navy with with the characters
- 1:13:34Speaker 1: of Icon and Rocket in such a short short run.
- 1:13:39Speaker 1: But in that short run, a lot happens. Yes, and
- 1:13:45Speaker 1: and this isn't and isn't. It isn't just with Icon
- 1:13:48Speaker 1: of Rocket. It's with Static, it's with Blood Syndicate, it's
- 1:13:51Speaker 1: with Hardware. Despite their short runs, there's a lot of story. Yeah,
- 1:13:59Speaker 1: and all these books, in all these books, and it's
- 1:14:04Speaker 1: hard to say a favorite arc because I think they
- 1:14:07Speaker 1: were just telling like a continuing story, you know, unless
- 1:14:11Speaker 1: it was like a crossover event or something like that,
- 1:14:14Speaker 1: like I think it was blood was it blood War?
- 1:14:17Speaker 1: M h Blood War was one of Shadow, Shadow, Shadow
- 1:14:22Speaker 1: something I can't think of the name right now, don't
- 1:14:25Speaker 1: give me a line, but they had at least they
- 1:14:28Speaker 1: had at least two or three crossovers Shadow War, Shadow
- 1:14:32Speaker 1: Shadow War.
- 1:14:34Speaker 6: So to have.
- 1:14:37Speaker 1: To have that short a run and have that much action,
- 1:14:41Speaker 1: and I mean like constantly something going. If it's not
- 1:14:44Speaker 1: physical like knock them down, drag out punch action, there's
- 1:14:48Speaker 1: action going on with the character building.
- 1:14:50Speaker 5: Yes, we're introduced to some interesting characters.
- 1:14:55Speaker 8: And the one that really makes me smile is definitely
- 1:14:59Speaker 8: a not to Marvel Comics is Buck Wild mm hmmm,
- 1:15:06Speaker 8: Bark Wilde mercenary Man, because that was that was the
- 1:15:09Speaker 8: blue that was Johnny Cage was Johnny Cage, but Luke
- 1:15:14Speaker 8: Cage was. He was the blueprint for Buck Wow on
- 1:15:17Speaker 8: every level, and that was the way of saying thank
- 1:15:20Speaker 8: you for paving the way. So bringing him in was
- 1:15:24Speaker 8: actually phenomenal, and they had to kill him off and
- 1:15:29Speaker 8: that was iconic as well.
- 1:15:30Speaker 1: Yeah, yep, yep, Rufe is t Wild.
- 1:15:39Speaker 8: But what may icon so I think what make icon
- 1:15:42Speaker 8: so special is that it became the foundational uh title
- 1:15:49Speaker 8: for crossovers and introductions to a lot of different characters
- 1:15:52Speaker 8: in the Dakota Verse that a lot of people wouldn't
- 1:15:55Speaker 8: even thought about.
- 1:15:57Speaker 6: You.
- 1:15:58Speaker 1: Yeah, go ahead, I was gonna say one of those
- 1:16:01Speaker 1: introductions is it's all of them. But one of the
- 1:16:04Speaker 1: first introductions was static.
- 1:16:07Speaker 8: Yep, so we had static, we had hardware. Yeah, of
- 1:16:12Speaker 8: course you had remnants of the syndicate. Zombie was introduced,
- 1:16:16Speaker 8: and that's another character that a lot of people don't
- 1:16:18Speaker 8: even think about. Uh sure, Cobalt Cross pass Ball to.
- 1:16:26Speaker 5: Death Wish.
- 1:16:28Speaker 8: Yes, yes, Death Wish was in it. And again, each
- 1:16:31Speaker 8: of them has a significance in this entire in the
- 1:16:34Speaker 8: entire universe. And I had to explain to somebody say,
- 1:16:38Speaker 8: you know, Death Wishes was a trans person, yes, what like, yeah,
- 1:16:44Speaker 8: a psychotic trans person.
- 1:16:46Speaker 5: It was making he makes Frank Castle look.
- 1:16:48Speaker 1: Like a kindergartener. Ain't line.
- 1:16:55Speaker 5: Absolute psycho.
- 1:16:57Speaker 1: And I think, and that's the and that that's why
- 1:16:59Speaker 1: when I look at anyone, doesn't matter what they look like.
- 1:17:05Speaker 1: When I look at anyone say something about, oh I
- 1:17:07Speaker 1: don't like politics or black politics or anything in their comics,
- 1:17:12Speaker 1: I said, you're missing the entire point. Then you're missing
- 1:17:15Speaker 1: the entire point because I thought, because that's all comics,
- 1:17:19Speaker 1: comics are comics. Well, I'm sorry, I'm getting sided, right.
- 1:17:23Speaker 1: Comics and mangas have always been representations of the outside walk.
- 1:17:27Speaker 1: So you can't sit there, and you can't sit there
- 1:17:28Speaker 1: and say that was the thing I was telling somebody
- 1:17:31Speaker 1: else earlier. Today, you cannot say all comics aren't political
- 1:17:34Speaker 1: when literally they represent what do you think most of
- 1:17:37Speaker 1: our stories come from? Yeah, I'm like, some stories I
- 1:17:40Speaker 1: admit are are from writers, are from writers imaginations, granted,
- 1:17:45Speaker 1: But a lot of the current writing look out the window.
- 1:17:51Speaker 1: You'll see similarities. That's all I'm saying. The fact that
- 1:17:56Speaker 1: it just kind of going off a little bit, the
- 1:17:58Speaker 1: fact that Sam Wilson on the Captain America Winter Soldier
- 1:18:06Speaker 1: Run literally was mirroring, mirroring his run, his first when
- 1:18:12Speaker 1: he first got the Shielding comics, and literally at the
- 1:18:15Speaker 1: end of that series, talking to those senators said he
- 1:18:19Speaker 1: here's there, here's how you fix it. Here's how you
- 1:18:24Speaker 1: fix it, slack jawed every last one of them. Right,
- 1:18:29Speaker 1: He's like, you want you can start a war with
- 1:18:31Speaker 1: a phone call. Why don't you start feeding some people
- 1:18:33Speaker 1: with that same phone call. I'm just saying I mean,
- 1:18:39Speaker 1: like you want to stop all of this, you get
- 1:18:42Speaker 1: you got the power to do so, so I think
- 1:18:46Speaker 1: with when and that was the thing that was the
- 1:18:49Speaker 1: thing about Milestone and characters like Akona Rocket, they weren't scared.
- 1:18:54Speaker 1: They weren't scared to address real world issues m hm.
- 1:19:00Speaker 1: Whether it was Rocket getting pregnant and I kind of
- 1:19:05Speaker 1: showing his disappointment in doing so because of her age,
- 1:19:12Speaker 1: dealing with teenage pregnancy at that time, even training Rocket,
- 1:19:20Speaker 1: sending her off of training and her feeling like are
- 1:19:25Speaker 1: you mind you? She's young, so dealing with the whole
- 1:19:30Speaker 1: why are you sending me off? Type situation and then
- 1:19:33Speaker 1: getting trained and then realizing, oh I might like this
- 1:19:36Speaker 1: a little bit. I may not come back. I might
- 1:19:42Speaker 1: do this another way, you know. The relationship, Like Male
- 1:19:47Speaker 1: stated earlier, that relationship, that Yin and Yang relationship is
- 1:19:50Speaker 1: something that was very well written. Because what came out
- 1:19:54Speaker 1: of Milestone was some very very well written stuff. I mean,
- 1:19:59Speaker 1: the fact that this stuff, the fact that this spills
- 1:20:02Speaker 1: over into the Justice League and Justice League un Limited
- 1:20:04Speaker 1: run thanks to Dwayne McDuffie. God we lost that man too, so.
- 1:20:09Speaker 5: Right that part, ah, that part, yeah.
- 1:20:17Speaker 1: Just another case of go after the dream. I'm glad
- 1:20:22Speaker 1: he went after the dream. I'm glad he went after
- 1:20:24Speaker 1: the dream. But you can really understand how these characters
- 1:20:34Speaker 1: if you thought, if you if you thought you kind
- 1:20:36Speaker 1: of recognized what Spider Man was going through, or or
- 1:20:40Speaker 1: dealing with loss like Batman, or dealing with loss like
- 1:20:45Speaker 1: Peter Parker. That's one thing. Now, imagine if you took
- 1:20:49Speaker 1: the character that looks like you, right, and you read cheat.
- 1:21:02Speaker 1: That's why that's why Rocky getting pregnant cast so much heat.
- 1:21:05Speaker 1: That's why Static having sex for the first time, and
- 1:21:11Speaker 1: it wouldn't even like scene. It was just like implied
- 1:21:16Speaker 1: and I was like, and it was save sex. On
- 1:21:18Speaker 1: top of that, it was like, what what do you want?
- 1:21:22Speaker 4: All the children? You know exactly what we dark you
- 1:21:27Speaker 4: think you are.
- 1:21:28Speaker 1: That's what they want, what they really want us to.
- 1:21:30Speaker 5: And yet y'all you take your kids to watch two.
- 1:21:33Speaker 1: B mm hmm.
- 1:21:35Speaker 8: Now I gotta gargle with hydrochloric acid because I said.
- 1:21:38Speaker 5: The name of it.
- 1:21:38Speaker 6: We didn't we didn't shoot the White best Friend again, like.
- 1:21:46Speaker 1: So it wohld you see characters like Icon? Just reading
- 1:21:51Speaker 1: about characters like Icon, I can't remember who voiced him
- 1:21:55Speaker 1: in the Young Justice cartoon. But I all always felt
- 1:22:00Speaker 1: that someone like a Carl Lumbley in his head, they
- 1:22:06Speaker 1: could would have been would have been perfect as as
- 1:22:09Speaker 1: an icon, you know, oh Tony Todd Todd, Yeah, okay,
- 1:22:19Speaker 1: so just seeing you know, uh, even now, when I
- 1:22:24Speaker 1: see some of our black actors, I see levels of
- 1:22:31Speaker 1: the characters like Icon and Rocket and Blue Marvel over
- 1:22:34Speaker 1: at Marvel. I see I see Larry Lawrence Fishburn, I
- 1:22:38Speaker 1: see himself. I see you know, Morgan Freeman doing you know,
- 1:22:43Speaker 1: doing a voice of some character, or you know these
- 1:22:48Speaker 1: or Carl Lumley. I see these characters because that's the
- 1:22:53Speaker 1: sound mm hmm. You know that that commanding presence, and
- 1:23:00Speaker 1: it can play uncertainty so well, so yeah, it's that's
- 1:23:09Speaker 1: just like kind of rocket mm hmm. That's just now
- 1:23:12Speaker 1: I mentioned I mentioned static static. It's static, not static shock.
- 1:23:19Speaker 1: Please ask the cartoon. That's the title of the cartoon.
- 1:23:23Speaker 1: He's not even called static shock in the cartoon. He's
- 1:23:26Speaker 1: called static. I have learned, and I used to and
- 1:23:30Speaker 1: I used to I used to be so ready to
- 1:23:33Speaker 1: fly out the handler when I heard that. I have
- 1:23:35Speaker 1: realized that that's kind of also the same problem with
- 1:23:38Speaker 1: Captain do Rag. I realized that it didn't dawn on
- 1:23:43Speaker 1: me until until what's his face did the IG post
- 1:23:47Speaker 1: about it? Where you know he was he was very
- 1:23:50Speaker 1: highly agitated by the fact that Captain do Rag gets
- 1:23:53Speaker 1: shared but roots of madness and bitter route And I
- 1:23:59Speaker 1: can keep going onhinghire list, but my brain's fired right
- 1:24:01Speaker 1: now that they don't get the same type of they
- 1:24:05Speaker 1: don't get the same type of shine that Captain do Rag.
- 1:24:08Speaker 1: And come to find out that might be a rip
- 1:24:09Speaker 1: off of somebody else. But the point I'm getting that
- 1:24:12Speaker 1: is I have I U sit there and say, you
- 1:24:14Speaker 1: know what, it's the whole idea that when it comes
- 1:24:18Speaker 1: down to it, folks would rather watch than read. Mm hmm,
- 1:24:22Speaker 1: thank you that. I hate to say that because that too,
- 1:24:31Speaker 1: and I'm just I'm like, how do you combat that?
- 1:24:33Speaker 1: Because we, I mean all of us have sat there
- 1:24:34Speaker 1: and said multiple times in the show, along with others,
- 1:24:37Speaker 1: reading is fundamental, literally and figurably fundamental. But we but
- 1:24:41Speaker 1: that's the uphill or as as I learned years ago,
- 1:24:46Speaker 1: reading is fun and mental. Yep, don't believe me. Asked
- 1:24:52Speaker 1: that box that got knocked out twice anyway, but no,
- 1:24:57Speaker 1: that's but that's the thing that we're I mean that
- 1:25:01Speaker 1: we run into that with this generation, which I am
- 1:25:04Speaker 1: glad that more people are getting in our learning about Milestone,
- 1:25:09Speaker 1: they're learning about Static, they're learning about icon and Hardware
- 1:25:13Speaker 1: and Rocket the Blood City. To get out the fact
- 1:25:17Speaker 1: that that piece of black history is finally finally starting
- 1:25:22Speaker 1: to hit mainstream, or feels like it's starting to hit
- 1:25:24Speaker 1: mainstream now, it's just like just read, just quit waiting.
- 1:25:30Speaker 1: I mean, as much as you want to, as much
- 1:25:31Speaker 1: as we keep saying we want to see a live
- 1:25:34Speaker 1: action movies, as much as we keep on saying we
- 1:25:36Speaker 1: want to see anime series, the books are still there.
- 1:25:39Speaker 1: Ladies and gentlemen. Read that part that I mean, that's
- 1:25:44Speaker 1: I mean, that's all it is. I hate It's like
- 1:25:46Speaker 1: Uncle Rutgers from Boondocks read Negro.
- 1:25:50Speaker 6: Little Song.
- 1:25:54Speaker 8: What's crazy about it is we came up in this generation.
- 1:25:58Speaker 8: Of course, you know, reading is fundamental. We had the
- 1:26:01Speaker 8: bookmobiles and everything. And what was interesting is we were
- 1:26:05Speaker 8: influenced to stay away from the TV for a certain
- 1:26:09Speaker 8: number of hours or at a certain time, and we
- 1:26:13Speaker 8: were rewarded to sit and watch TV for maybe hour
- 1:26:15Speaker 8: two hours we didn't sit in front of it for
- 1:26:18Speaker 8: hours on end, and we moved down to now to
- 1:26:22Speaker 8: this current generation, and some of them think you're teasing us.
- 1:26:25Speaker 8: I said, can you put down a screen longer than
- 1:26:28Speaker 8: two hours without going through tics? Without having to wonder
- 1:26:32Speaker 8: if someone's hitting you up on social media or you're
- 1:26:34Speaker 8: getting that text, or you're waiting.
- 1:26:36Speaker 5: For that phone call.
- 1:26:37Speaker 8: I personally, I've got a stack of comics on my
- 1:26:40Speaker 8: coffee table. All I have to do is put on
- 1:26:42Speaker 8: a little bit of music with no words, and I
- 1:26:45Speaker 8: am content.
- 1:26:46Speaker 5: I can read all night long.
- 1:26:48Speaker 1: This is why I said I missed today is when
- 1:26:50Speaker 1: TV went off.
- 1:26:53Speaker 4: Thank you, my man, Thank you sir.
- 1:26:56Speaker 1: Miss I missed the day. You know why? I tell folks,
- 1:26:59Speaker 1: here's showing all right? Just I know, I know, mean,
- 1:27:01Speaker 1: Chris Dave, You're all gonna remember this. Remember when you
- 1:27:03Speaker 1: saw mash and realized that it was about you about
- 1:27:06Speaker 1: to go to bed? Yeah you saw Mask Tears, or
- 1:27:12Speaker 1: or if you're in the South, you saw the Andy
- 1:27:15Speaker 1: Griffin shows. Yeah, those three shows you knew off the
- 1:27:22Speaker 1: bed it was time to go to bed. Why, because
- 1:27:24Speaker 1: you were gonna get the You're gonna get the stars
- 1:27:26Speaker 1: and stripes, and then you got snow for the next
- 1:27:28Speaker 1: eight hours. TV used to go off, but like Tonay said,
- 1:27:33Speaker 1: we are Our reward at the time was you got
- 1:27:36Speaker 1: to sit down and you did get to watch shows
- 1:27:38Speaker 1: for maybe an hour, maybe two hours, or if you're
- 1:27:40Speaker 1: on a good Friday night, hey go nuts. Just don't
- 1:27:43Speaker 1: wake me up. You've probably got you probably got that.
- 1:27:46Speaker 1: But but no, it's it's just like like TV is
- 1:27:49Speaker 1: twenty four seven now and not just TV just and
- 1:27:52Speaker 1: it doesn't need to be honest, not not everything, yeah,
- 1:27:56Speaker 1: not everything, because even the new like news sights, my god,
- 1:28:03Speaker 1: news cycles, it's too much. I'm like, look, whatever you
- 1:28:07Speaker 1: need to tell me, you probably you've already told me
- 1:28:09Speaker 1: in an hour. Mm hmmm. I don't know why you're
- 1:28:12Speaker 1: on it four in the morning and don't go off
- 1:28:16Speaker 1: until ten. It was like, you're you're telling me the
- 1:28:19Speaker 1: same thing. I know the sports score, I know there's
- 1:28:24Speaker 1: a water main bus down the street, I know we're
- 1:28:26Speaker 1: going to get snow. And so it's so funny. This
- 1:28:29Speaker 1: is before recording on VCRs and things everything else. If
- 1:28:32Speaker 1: you missed it, you had to wait until the next
- 1:28:34Speaker 1: day and hope, for God for a rerun. And I'm
- 1:28:38Speaker 1: like and to piggyback over that. I don't. I don't
- 1:28:43Speaker 1: like to watch all my shows at once. Remember when
- 1:28:49Speaker 1: you had Remember remember that, Remember the waiting for next
- 1:28:52Speaker 1: week and anticipation. Was I grateful? Was I grateful for DVR?
- 1:28:57Speaker 8: Oh?
- 1:28:58Speaker 1: Hell yeah? Because work schedule? So yeah, I was definitely
- 1:29:00Speaker 1: grateful for DVR. But to wait week by week? You know,
- 1:29:06Speaker 1: you know how you use some mess with folks. When
- 1:29:08Speaker 1: Power Rangers during the Timmy, during the Timmy Evil Green
- 1:29:11Speaker 1: Rangers series, when you had this speech of me and
- 1:29:14Speaker 1: my brother's life, kids were stressed out, smoke. Kids were
- 1:29:19Speaker 1: stressed out smoking candy cigarettes. That week that was the
- 1:29:23Speaker 1: longest Power Rangers when Tommy showed up was the longest
- 1:29:29Speaker 1: week of me and my brother's life. Optimist Prime Dying
- 1:29:33Speaker 1: and Transformers the animated movie was the was the most
- 1:29:38Speaker 1: somber weekend until Monday rolled around, where every kid ended
- 1:29:42Speaker 1: up coming to school confused as hell because it was like, wait,
- 1:29:46Speaker 1: Optimists is still alive? How is he still alive? We
- 1:29:48Speaker 1: just seen him die? Uh so all of the space goes.
- 1:29:52Speaker 1: My god, when you actually see how bad as he
- 1:29:55Speaker 1: actually is.
- 1:29:57Speaker 8: If y'all want to read, that will f your brain
- 1:30:00Speaker 8: but keep you in this space goes run by dynamite,
- 1:30:05Speaker 8: bro let me tell you.
- 1:30:06Speaker 5: But it goes back to what we were talking about.
- 1:30:08Speaker 5: You're missing out so much when you don't read.
- 1:30:11Speaker 8: There are beautiful, in depth stories with character development, and
- 1:30:15Speaker 8: you can talk about it to other people.
- 1:30:17Speaker 1: Yep, And that's all. But that's the comp But that's
- 1:30:22Speaker 1: the thing I said, that's the problem I think we're
- 1:30:23Speaker 1: going to run into. It's like, how do you beat
- 1:30:27Speaker 1: how do you beat twenty four to seven programming? How
- 1:30:30Speaker 1: do you beat it? Because because the thing about it,
- 1:30:32Speaker 1: this is the only way you can beat it. And
- 1:30:34Speaker 1: I hate to say it, and I don't wish this.
- 1:30:36Speaker 1: I don't wish this, but I feel like that's the
- 1:30:38Speaker 1: only option to get more eyes to something before we
- 1:30:42Speaker 1: can say, okay, let's go full media with it. Maybe
- 1:30:46Speaker 1: Milestone is is through remaining books. And I hate would
- 1:30:53Speaker 1: I would not. I would not. I would not argue that.
- 1:30:58Speaker 1: I would not argue it because I would not, or
- 1:31:02Speaker 1: as much as I would love to see them in
- 1:31:04Speaker 1: other mediums, I would not argue against them just staying
- 1:31:08Speaker 1: in comics. Yeah, I would have and I don't, and
- 1:31:12Speaker 1: I hate to say that, I truly do want to
- 1:31:15Speaker 1: see and again, this is me. This is me not
- 1:31:18Speaker 1: only as a Combok fan, but also as a parent
- 1:31:21Speaker 1: and an uncle. Like, the only way you're going to
- 1:31:25Speaker 1: get this generation and as and and and and fury,
- 1:31:30Speaker 1: as you said it, your attention spans. The only way
- 1:31:32Speaker 1: you're gonna get their attention is you have to you
- 1:31:34Speaker 1: have to divert to a media that is going to
- 1:31:36Speaker 1: force them to actually use their brain power, because let's
- 1:31:39Speaker 1: be honest, watching TV does not Watching TV does not
- 1:31:42Speaker 1: use your brain power. You're just sitting there as as
- 1:31:44Speaker 1: images are going past and you're just there. Reading does.
- 1:31:48Speaker 1: Reading does involve a little bit of imagination, It does
- 1:31:51Speaker 1: involve a little bit of processing, It does involve a
- 1:31:53Speaker 1: little bit of critical thinking. It involves above all. But
- 1:31:57Speaker 1: with kids these days, the first thing that's there and
- 1:31:59Speaker 1: say is what happens it on?
- 1:32:03Speaker 5: And I hate that.
- 1:32:04Speaker 1: Yeah, I get I'm not against that type of version,
- 1:32:08Speaker 1: that version, but me personally, it's how I got introduced
- 1:32:11Speaker 1: to different artists, different writers, and and realizing oh this
- 1:32:19Speaker 1: is a darnsky, Oh this is Deephaniely, this is this
- 1:32:24Speaker 1: is Nicholas Ivy Draper, this is Jonathan Hickman, this is
- 1:32:28Speaker 1: James Tenny and this is Scott Snyder. I get introduced
- 1:32:31Speaker 1: to people's writing style that I enjoy, and I'm like, okay,
- 1:32:38Speaker 1: which is why I end up following those writers to
- 1:32:41Speaker 1: other books, because I know whatever they're gonna touch, it's
- 1:32:46Speaker 1: gonna be golden m But even dance slots run on
- 1:32:52Speaker 1: Spider Man was fun. Dance slots run on on Fantastic
- 1:32:55Speaker 1: War was fun. I enjoyed immensely Hickman's run on Fantastic Four,
- 1:33:03Speaker 1: on Avengers and on knicks Man, Frank Rolls running The
- 1:33:07Speaker 1: Dark Knight, Miller other way on The Dark Knight, Frank
- 1:33:11Speaker 1: Miller's run on Daredevil to this day up until the
- 1:33:17Speaker 1: Darsky Unmatched Right, completely agree, But that's but that's why
- 1:33:22Speaker 1: I'm getting that though. It's just like and I want
- 1:33:24Speaker 1: to and again, I want to see Milestone get the
- 1:33:27Speaker 1: Marvel treatment. I do, but the problem is it's gonna
- 1:33:31Speaker 1: run to the same issue that Marvel's running into. Now
- 1:33:34Speaker 1: you done went so far into programming, your comic lines
- 1:33:39Speaker 1: are taking hits. Mm hmm, nobody, they're more they're more
- 1:33:42Speaker 1: influenced by what they see on the screen than they
- 1:33:44Speaker 1: are about It used to be the other way around
- 1:33:47Speaker 1: right now, it's now, it's like what you see happen
- 1:33:50Speaker 1: on screen kind of influences how the characters are viewed
- 1:33:54Speaker 1: in in comics. Spider Toby Toby McGuire Spider Man is
- 1:33:59Speaker 1: a perfect example. Mm hmm. Organic webbing yep. And for
- 1:34:05Speaker 1: for for a while Pete had organic webbing in the comics,
- 1:34:11Speaker 1: and then they then they reverted it, and I'm like,
- 1:34:13Speaker 1: all right, it's it's a I guess it's a cool feature,
- 1:34:17Speaker 1: but okay, but certain things is fine to to change
- 1:34:22Speaker 1: up because for the narrative, it's fine to change up
- 1:34:24Speaker 1: for the narrative. I e uld Tron, It's fine, here's
- 1:34:29Speaker 1: the one. Here's the one. I'll Sayuth the back. I'll
- 1:34:32Speaker 1: even use the Godfather himself. I'll use Blade. I will
- 1:34:35Speaker 1: use Blade because the actual origin of Blade. Oh and
- 1:34:43Speaker 1: a lot of people who call themselves Marvel acts first,
- 1:34:46Speaker 1: because they followed Marvel sense Blade or actually beyond that,
- 1:34:50Speaker 1: we'll always talk to the rest first, like, no, you're
- 1:34:53Speaker 1: gonna stare. Tell me Blade was British. Yeah, yes he was.
- 1:34:57Speaker 1: He was, and he had and he had a god
- 1:35:00Speaker 1: awful costume too, which really wasn't a costume.
- 1:35:02Speaker 5: Matter of fact, his first appearance was in Dracula.
- 1:35:05Speaker 1: Thank you, and and the gear that he wore was
- 1:35:09Speaker 1: the gear of his dead compatriots. But what's so crazy
- 1:35:14Speaker 1: is green paints, brown leather jacket. But what's so crazy
- 1:35:18Speaker 1: is when you sit there and tell other people who
- 1:35:22Speaker 1: have yet to read one good ding comic it is
- 1:35:28Speaker 1: amazing though the deer and headlights looking their eyes like, no,
- 1:35:32Speaker 1: you told me there was a There was an Avengers
- 1:35:34Speaker 1: group that was probably called MS thirteen. Yes, yes, along
- 1:35:39Speaker 1: with Captain Briton and everyone else. Wait there was a
- 1:35:43Speaker 1: Captain Britain.
- 1:35:44Speaker 5: Yes, there were two.
- 1:35:47Speaker 1: I had to stop myself because I sit there. I
- 1:35:51Speaker 1: used to stap and say you sweet summer child, and
- 1:35:53Speaker 1: I'm like, no, you know what, let me because I
- 1:35:57Speaker 1: just stopped myself. You always you don't want to be
- 1:36:00Speaker 1: I'm like, I do not want to be that comic guy.
- 1:36:02Speaker 1: I do not want to be that kind of guy
- 1:36:04Speaker 1: that it's all wrong. Everything you know is wrong. But
- 1:36:10Speaker 1: that's where you guys sit there, and I'm like, okay,
- 1:36:13Speaker 1: let's use this as an opportunity to teach or to
- 1:36:17Speaker 1: guide god them and say look, read this, read this.
- 1:36:25Speaker 1: Yeah that's another one, or even or even when a
- 1:36:29Speaker 1: old boy played The Punisher, John Burton All, he tells
- 1:36:32Speaker 1: that story all the time. When I got the role
- 1:36:33Speaker 1: of Punishure, what do he do? Went to a comic store,
- 1:36:36Speaker 1: bought every issue of The Punisher you could find. Whoever
- 1:36:39Speaker 1: that said clerk said nope, you want this. This guided him,
- 1:36:48Speaker 1: guided him in a proper way and gave him the
- 1:36:51Speaker 1: warning we all said, don't have this up. I mean
- 1:36:55Speaker 1: it was already there, yeah, but he really got it now. Yeah.
- 1:37:00Speaker 1: So it's like, it's amazing to where if you And
- 1:37:05Speaker 1: again going back to gunn what a gun do for
- 1:37:07Speaker 1: what a gun do? For Superman? Everybody who played a
- 1:37:11Speaker 1: role knows their character from the comics, not from the movies,
- 1:37:17Speaker 1: not for the animation. Although not knocking Justice League, Young
- 1:37:20Speaker 1: Justice and Fantom, not knocking of those. But you notice
- 1:37:23Speaker 1: every person that played a DC character reference to comics.
- 1:37:28Speaker 1: So that loan tells you, Nicholas Holtz running as Lex, yeah,
- 1:37:35Speaker 1: is the best theatrical version Lex we have gotten. And
- 1:37:41Speaker 1: even he sat there and said, I got my inspiration
- 1:37:45Speaker 1: from the death of Superman. He said, I got my
- 1:37:49Speaker 1: inspiration from Lex initially from the death of Superman. I'm like,
- 1:37:52Speaker 1: and I grew up with the Gene Hackman version, which
- 1:37:57Speaker 1: and it wasn't until Smallville with Michael Rosen shout out
- 1:38:01Speaker 1: to Michael Rosebaum play the lex that I'm like, he
- 1:38:04Speaker 1: is more lex than any other legs I've seen, Right,
- 1:38:09Speaker 1: But that just goes back to the fact that there
- 1:38:13Speaker 1: is literally and figuratively care take it into the fact
- 1:38:17Speaker 1: to read the source material. The same thing that we
- 1:38:20Speaker 1: keep harping about whenever these movies come out, Go to
- 1:38:24Speaker 1: the writers, go to the source material. The stories to
- 1:38:27Speaker 1: tell these movies are there. You only need to follow
- 1:38:31Speaker 1: what's already there. And we're okay with variations. You're not
- 1:38:35Speaker 1: gonna be able to do a direct to direct to
- 1:38:38Speaker 1: comic to direct, to move a comic to a movie,
- 1:38:40Speaker 1: that's just not gonna happen. You're all gonna have to
- 1:38:42Speaker 1: make some concessions. But a source material is literally and
- 1:38:46Speaker 1: figurably there.
- 1:38:47Speaker 6: You have.
- 1:38:48Speaker 1: You have at least seventeen to eighty years worth the
- 1:38:50Speaker 1: source materials between both houses. That's just what it is.
- 1:38:52Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:38:53Speaker 1: Yeah, but again, but not to go back away from Milestone.
- 1:38:56Speaker 1: Milestone just needs to remain. It needs remain in book
- 1:39:01Speaker 1: form in order for it to get the respect deserves
- 1:39:04Speaker 1: it changes, it needs to get more. Although don't get
- 1:39:07Speaker 1: me wrong, we all hear yond no question respect milestone
- 1:39:12Speaker 1: to those that are of the TV instant gratification twenty
- 1:39:15Speaker 1: four to seven generation, those are the ones that need
- 1:39:18Speaker 1: to go back and breathe. Yeah, and like that's why
- 1:39:21Speaker 1: I was gonna swing back to like static, so static everyone.
- 1:39:27Speaker 1: Virgil Ovid hawkings. Yes, Ovid is a He's introduced into
- 1:39:36Speaker 1: the last I think the three pages in the first
- 1:39:38Speaker 1: and Icon issue one YEA in ninety three, and he's
- 1:39:45Speaker 1: fifteen years old, and he generally gets his powers his
- 1:39:49Speaker 1: power sitting or not his power st but his origin
- 1:39:53Speaker 1: never changed even during the twenty fifteen revival is just updated. Uh.
- 1:40:02Speaker 8: The revival was dumb, Yeah, pretty much absolute garbage.
- 1:40:08Speaker 1: And it could have it could have done better, but
- 1:40:11Speaker 1: I put I put that on the house. And so
- 1:40:17Speaker 1: Virgil at a protest government entity or bad business let's
- 1:40:27Speaker 1: let's just say like rock song mm hmm, decides to
- 1:40:31Speaker 1: use this experimental gas to dissipate the crowd when really
- 1:40:36Speaker 1: they just want to become make them test subjects. We
- 1:40:41Speaker 1: heard this before, at which point this creates the bang babies. Now,
- 1:40:48Speaker 1: a lot of the bang. Babies that came out of
- 1:40:50Speaker 1: this were was Ebon and a couple of other Hot Streak,
- 1:40:54Speaker 1: which was a bully for for Virgil.
- 1:40:57Speaker 7: Uh.
- 1:40:58Speaker 1: But Virgil who comes from a well to do to parent.
- 1:41:05Speaker 5: Home, upper middle class mm hmmm.
- 1:41:10Speaker 1: He is a mindful young man. He's not a street thug,
- 1:41:17Speaker 1: right as they he's he is smart. He is in
- 1:41:20Speaker 1: high school. He has your typical brother and sister relationship.
- 1:41:23Speaker 1: He has a relationship with his father, he has a
- 1:41:25Speaker 1: relationship with his mother. Mm hmm. Everything. He just wants
- 1:41:32Speaker 1: to do the right thing.
- 1:41:35Speaker 5: And be a teenager and be a teenager.
- 1:41:38Speaker 1: And that's what it was. It was more so him
- 1:41:43Speaker 1: being a teenager opposed to him fighting. Yeah. And this
- 1:41:49Speaker 1: is what I loved about Rocket. This is what I
- 1:41:52Speaker 1: loved about Static because there was this balance of yeah, yeah, yeah,
- 1:41:56Speaker 1: I'm a hero a lot of times, but I'm learning
- 1:42:01Speaker 1: to do that. I'm still learning to be a teenager
- 1:42:03Speaker 1: right now. And it's what these it's this was the
- 1:42:09Speaker 1: writing once again. His first full appearance was Static Number one,
- 1:42:15Speaker 1: of course, written by Wwayne McDuffie and Robert L. Washington.
- 1:42:18Speaker 1: I I he's a member of the fictional subspecies of
- 1:42:22Speaker 1: human known as meta humans. He is considered a metal
- 1:42:25Speaker 1: human because he wasn't born with the abilities. He received
- 1:42:30Speaker 1: them through a science style exhibit. We can talk about
- 1:42:35Speaker 1: Newtant's meta humans and aliens at another show. But so
- 1:42:46Speaker 1: the chemical that was used, the gas that was used
- 1:42:48Speaker 1: is called quantum juice, all right, which is and he's
- 1:42:52Speaker 1: a bang baby, which is subcategory of a meta human.
- 1:42:55Speaker 1: So when you hear like I said, we'll talk about
- 1:42:59Speaker 1: meta human later whatever.
- 1:43:03Speaker 5: Two parts.
- 1:43:03Speaker 1: Seriously, that's going to be a two part series. So
- 1:43:06Speaker 1: the publication history alone, I think Static, even though Icon
- 1:43:12Speaker 1: and Rock, Icon and Rocket with the first out the gate,
- 1:43:15Speaker 1: Static was the one that really like put the stamp
- 1:43:20Speaker 1: on everything.
- 1:43:21Speaker 5: The most popular character to date.
- 1:43:23Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, he put a you know down to some
- 1:43:29Speaker 1: of the people even knowing his thing. His civilian identity
- 1:43:34Speaker 1: named after Vergil B. Hawkins, a black man who has
- 1:43:36Speaker 1: denied interest to the University of Florida's law school due
- 1:43:39Speaker 1: to his race in nineteen forty nine. So if that
- 1:43:42Speaker 1: name sounds familiar, there's your there's the educating part that's
- 1:43:46Speaker 1: still coming from this show. Like I said that, that
- 1:43:51Speaker 1: was suggested by Christopher Priest, who helped co develop the
- 1:43:55Speaker 1: Milestone Bible with McDuffie and the name is inspired by
- 1:44:02Speaker 1: James Brown. See it's black and black all the so
- 1:44:11Speaker 1: a lot of these characters, like Static, that dealt with
- 1:44:14Speaker 1: a lot of their I don't even want to say hangups,
- 1:44:18Speaker 1: they're they're trials, the trials of just being human. Whether
- 1:44:22Speaker 1: it's whether it's Icon, whether it's Hardware, whether it's Rocket,
- 1:44:27Speaker 1: whether it's Static, all of these people have one thing
- 1:44:32Speaker 1: in common. It is the human element. Even though Icon's
- 1:44:36Speaker 1: not human, it's still dealing with the human element, human
- 1:44:42Speaker 1: adjacent and electricity based powers. Uh uses. For a while
- 1:44:50Speaker 1: it was a sewer cover.
- 1:44:53Speaker 6: It was.
- 1:44:56Speaker 1: Trash lid. Uh very well loved character. I actually kind
- 1:45:03Speaker 1: of even though his original look, his original look was
- 1:45:09Speaker 1: like badass back. It was dope.
- 1:45:11Speaker 5: The yellow long coat, black bodysuit underneath.
- 1:45:17Speaker 1: And the black body suit with the electricity and the
- 1:45:19Speaker 1: black and the ex the Malcolm X hat and.
- 1:45:22Speaker 5: The gardlets, the long gauntlets.
- 1:45:24Speaker 6: Yeah, and.
- 1:45:28Speaker 1: And I remember people saying, oh this this is too black,
- 1:45:33Speaker 1: and I'm like, it ain't black enough, ain't no such good.
- 1:45:39Speaker 1: It was, like mal said, it pure black history. Love.
- 1:45:42Speaker 8: Yes, I saw someone cosplay the original Static cosplay the
- 1:45:48Speaker 8: original At Dragon Con, I walked into him and said.
- 1:45:51Speaker 5: Thank you for doing it right.
- 1:45:54Speaker 8: I had to tell him because I was like, from
- 1:45:56Speaker 8: the ball cap to the to the yellow long coat,
- 1:46:00Speaker 8: everything on point. You gotta read, you gotta you gotta read,
- 1:46:09Speaker 8: gotta read, understand you miss out on shit.
- 1:46:12Speaker 5: You're gonna read little niggas.
- 1:46:17Speaker 1: So so he's so now mind you during this protest,
- 1:46:22Speaker 1: the police they don't know that this these gas containers
- 1:46:27Speaker 1: contain this quantum juice. They don't know anything. They're just
- 1:46:30Speaker 1: trying to Yeah, they thought it was regular tear gas.
- 1:46:33Speaker 1: They're just trying to dissipate the crowd and thet The company,
- 1:46:37Speaker 1: I should say, that's behind.
- 1:46:39Speaker 5: The whole thing, al Industries, Alpha Industry.
- 1:46:43Speaker 1: You'll hear more about them from another character. Mm hm,
- 1:46:47Speaker 1: my boy. Alva Industries took a lot of these kids
- 1:46:53Speaker 1: into their custody. Sound familiar. Yeah, listen up closely, uh,
- 1:47:03Speaker 1: because this is where Virgil finds out about his powers.
- 1:47:06Speaker 1: His powers emerged. At this point, you know, he fights
- 1:47:09Speaker 1: back and you know he gets out. He's aided by
- 1:47:12Speaker 1: his friends Rick Stone Larry Wade. He shows him romantic
- 1:47:15Speaker 1: interest in his friend and confident free to Goren, but
- 1:47:18Speaker 1: she's involved with Larry Wade, so uh. He confronts numerous
- 1:47:21Speaker 1: bang babies over superpower adversaries like hot Streak, Tarmac, Holocaust,
- 1:47:26Speaker 1: Commander x Puff Coyle, who is it Rift, the Swarm,
- 1:47:34Speaker 1: the Swarm, Rubber rubber Bandman, doctor Kilgore. Yep, this one
- 1:47:41Speaker 1: always threw me off. And also like they really named
- 1:47:44Speaker 1: his character brat at tat Tat is the actually that's
- 1:47:46Speaker 1: actually that that really out reading that before and I'm like, man,
- 1:47:53Speaker 1: they really call this character brat attat tat mm hmm okay,
- 1:47:58Speaker 1: oh yeah, better better than conomic King. Yeah. Uh, let
- 1:48:06Speaker 1: me see I had wrote it down. Oh Prometheus run,
- 1:48:11Speaker 1: jump and burn yep, h Boombox, power fist, laser jet
- 1:48:17Speaker 1: and other bang babies that he's a counter such as
- 1:48:19Speaker 1: virus destruct and Hyacinth yeah boom box. That's why when
- 1:48:26Speaker 1: that comic Black came out years later year a couple
- 1:48:29Speaker 1: of years ago, and the name like they had a
- 1:48:32Speaker 1: sister who was it was built like the thing and
- 1:48:35Speaker 1: they called a brick house and I'm like, I let it.
- 1:48:39Speaker 5: Like it was also thirty feet tall.
- 1:48:45Speaker 1: Yeah, I was like, if it's there, I let it slide.
- 1:48:50Speaker 1: So because I'm like, they obviously did not pay attention
- 1:48:53Speaker 1: to that bad I'm sorry, alhad Yeah. He also has
- 1:48:56Speaker 1: a mini series called Rebirth of the Cool. He's given
- 1:49:00Speaker 1: At this point, he's given up his career as static uh.
- 1:49:03Speaker 1: He enjoys his time as a civilian, but missus being
- 1:49:06Speaker 1: a superhero as well. Mm hm. Which is this is
- 1:49:10Speaker 1: this is a rare, rare occurrence. Though you have characters
- 1:49:15Speaker 1: like I'm going to give up the identity for a
- 1:49:18Speaker 1: while and I'm going to be comfortable with it. Mm hm.
- 1:49:23Speaker 1: I mean, at the same time, there's not a there's
- 1:49:26Speaker 1: not a there's not a I don't miss it. I'm
- 1:49:29Speaker 1: not I'm not getting the shakes. I'm just I am
- 1:49:32Speaker 1: trying to live a normal life as the world continues on,
- 1:49:35Speaker 1: and it's it's really refreshing to see that versus you know,
- 1:49:40Speaker 1: that person that you know started seeing the first we
- 1:49:42Speaker 1: get a major pain. I'm starting to get the itch,
- 1:49:44Speaker 1: but I got nothing to scratch it. But you know that.
- 1:49:49Speaker 1: But that's just it. Though, it's it's different storytelling, and
- 1:49:53Speaker 1: it works so especially for the fact that we can
- 1:49:56Speaker 1: relate and the thing about it is also we can
- 1:49:58Speaker 1: relate to it, so I have a pop quiz and
- 1:50:03Speaker 1: maybe you might know this, and this deals with this
- 1:50:09Speaker 1: deals with Virgil. Thank you, Mike, I forgot it's Commodore's
- 1:50:12Speaker 1: not got bad. But that was the first thing I
- 1:50:14Speaker 1: knew you.
- 1:50:14Speaker 5: I knew you were going to get it eventually.
- 1:50:19Speaker 1: So so Static Fights, a character who was later revealed
- 1:50:29Speaker 1: to be Milestone's first and greatest superhero. Do you know
- 1:50:37Speaker 1: the name?
- 1:50:42Speaker 6: Ooh, ooh, this is a comic fight or a TV fight.
- 1:50:51Speaker 1: Comic comic and it's it's escaped me right now. You
- 1:50:58Speaker 1: it's it's it's it's a it's a common The first

- 1:51:11Speaker 1: M maybe you got this what I'm I'm I can't think.

- 1:52:14Speaker 1: last name is simple, isn't it pretty much? And that's
- 1:52:18Speaker 1: why I be mad. That's exactly what to be mad,
- 1:52:21Speaker 1: because it's it's a simple. It's a simple name, and
- 1:52:26Speaker 1: I cannot think of it right now and it's killing me.
- 1:52:33Speaker 1: Give up, Yeah, no, no, hang on. So no, it's
- 1:52:43Speaker 1: it's simple. It is literally simple, and it's gonna bug.
- 1:52:47Speaker 6: Me Smith Johnson Jackson.
- 1:52:51Speaker 1: No, it's they got the first name, but it's John Henry. No,
- 1:52:58Speaker 1: for time's sake, I'm a let it go ahead, go ahead,
- 1:53:01Speaker 1: go ahead, for your for time's sake, I gotta let
- 1:53:02Speaker 1: it go. John Tower.
- 1:53:04Speaker 5: Mother, damn, that's right, that's right.
- 1:53:10Speaker 1: Oh gosh, why couldn't I remember John Tower?
- 1:53:15Speaker 4: That's yes?
- 1:53:17Speaker 1: So that is that is uh static lasted forty five issues,
- 1:53:25Speaker 1: I want to say, yeah, forty five issues. I can't
- 1:53:28Speaker 1: remember how many mini series, but this is true.
- 1:53:33Speaker 5: There were too mini series.
- 1:53:35Speaker 1: Yeah, too many. Yeah, I couldn't remember it was three
- 1:53:37Speaker 1: or not, but yeah.
- 1:53:39Speaker 5: By Fire and Rebirth of the Cool Cool Yeah.
- 1:53:44Speaker 1: So dang, yeah, John, you almost had it. No, I can't.
- 1:53:50Speaker 1: I don't. I don't accept half. It's all nothing. It
- 1:53:55Speaker 1: asked me all or nothing. I damn, that's gonna bug me.
- 1:54:00Speaker 1: I think what I'm going to do is each episode
- 1:54:04Speaker 1: until we get through, have many characters. Mm hmm. It's
- 1:54:10Speaker 1: talk about each character from the Milestone universe. Because what
- 1:54:14Speaker 1: I want I want I want our listeners to understand
- 1:54:18Speaker 1: and and our viewers to understand, like, yeah, these these
- 1:54:21Speaker 1: characters exist, these characters are real, These characters are dope okay.
- 1:54:27Speaker 1: And you can actually find the back catalogs there if
- 1:54:33Speaker 1: you just know what it looks. They're not they're not
- 1:54:34Speaker 1: hard to find. You know, maybe number ones, but you
- 1:54:38Speaker 1: know that's neither here, that's neither here there. But go ahead,
- 1:54:42Speaker 1: go to your local bookstore, go get into your local
- 1:54:44Speaker 1: library mm hm and get trades or get back logs
- 1:54:49Speaker 1: and check them out. It's okay. Also have Also, if
- 1:54:53Speaker 1: you have a real central library, chances are they do
- 1:54:55Speaker 1: have copies on crap. Either they have the digital copies
- 1:55:02Speaker 1: or the extra copies on photoshops. So that's really showing
- 1:55:06Speaker 1: my age. So you might have those two. It just depends,
- 1:55:09Speaker 1: it depends on how how advanced your libraries are I
- 1:55:12Speaker 1: know some libraries may not have, but a lot of
- 1:55:14Speaker 1: minicipal ones have. But you never know, right, So I
- 1:55:19Speaker 1: mean and I say all of this because one milestone deserves,
- 1:55:26Speaker 1: has earned and deserves the respect and the accolades that
- 1:55:30Speaker 1: any DC comic, any Marvel Comic Image or in any
- 1:55:36Speaker 1: Boom Studios, any it needs to be mentioned in those
- 1:55:41Speaker 1: conversations because once again, as we as we talk to
- 1:55:46Speaker 1: a lot of independent black creative comic book companies, Midnight Comics,
- 1:55:52Speaker 1: Ray Comics, Empound Ace Blade, you know, we go down
- 1:56:01Speaker 1: every last one of these books has these dope stories.
- 1:56:06Speaker 1: Sweet Pea was just on, you know, I didn't even
- 1:56:09Speaker 1: like it was just on.
- 1:56:10Speaker 3: Uh.
- 1:56:12Speaker 1: Charles Charlie Wilson just was on last week to talk
- 1:56:15Speaker 1: about his book. If it's not a kickstarter, it's something
- 1:56:18Speaker 1: that is the there out there, Please go find them,

- 1:57:00Speaker 1: It's completely fine.
- 1:57:02Speaker 8: The story of on the Stump I wish would be
- 1:57:05Speaker 8: happening right now because Congress would be a completely interesting
- 1:57:10Speaker 8: place to watch.
- 1:57:12Speaker 1: Here.
- 1:57:12Speaker 5: You can pass the bill if you can beat my.
- 1:57:18Speaker 1: Jasmine will yo, let's go her and AOC. I'm just
- 1:57:24Speaker 1: saying her AOC that, Oh dear god, I oppressed they.
- 1:57:32Speaker 1: I'm not saying bills will get pass past. I'm just
- 1:57:35Speaker 1: saying hands with you, know, you find out who has
- 1:57:37Speaker 1: hands and who I can see the first one saying, oh,
- 1:57:39Speaker 1: you ain't saying nothing for the word I've been wanting.
- 1:57:44Speaker 1: I've been wanting to get my hands on you for
- 1:57:46Speaker 1: a minute.
- 1:57:47Speaker 5: It was Omar will be showing them exactly what it means.
- 1:57:53Speaker 1: Don't let the small frame and smile fool you. I'm
- 1:57:57Speaker 1: gonna chew you up in the Congress and then I'm
- 1:57:59Speaker 1: a true you up out here in this ring.
- 1:58:01Speaker 8: If y'all ever want to get story to what to
- 1:58:05Speaker 8: read about what Congress should be about. On the Stump
- 1:58:09Speaker 8: is incredible, absolutely incredible.
- 1:58:13Speaker 1: So it's it's definitely milestone comics, Milestone Media needs to
- 1:58:18Speaker 1: be in these conversations. These characters need to be talked about.
- 1:58:21Speaker 1: They deserve every right to have a continuing storyline with
- 1:58:27Speaker 1: all of these characters. Yep, it's it's it's it's it's
- 1:58:32Speaker 1: past due, past due. Although check those out. Although if
- 1:58:38Speaker 1: I would give a plead, although it's might fall the
- 1:58:40Speaker 1: deaf fears, d C just do right by the owners.
- 1:58:47Speaker 1: I'm trying to bury it. I don't even think it's
- 1:58:49Speaker 1: you know what, I don't even think it's DC doing it.
- 1:58:53Speaker 1: I think it's the ones over them doing it. Otherwise,
- 1:58:58Speaker 1: you see where it all ends. It was like nobody's
- 1:59:04Speaker 1: going to look for that, No, everybody. We want everybody
- 1:59:07Speaker 1: to look for that. And I always look for that
- 1:59:10Speaker 1: and that and that's why I tell folks, I said,
- 1:59:12Speaker 1: you want true motivation. There are people, I said, true
- 1:59:15Speaker 1: motivation of all this. People looked at centers and said,
- 1:59:18Speaker 1: a cast of nothing but black people will never make money.
- 1:59:22Speaker 1: And it was said by multiple folks. And look what happened.
- 1:59:26Speaker 5: That was Honestly, that was a dope run of Blood Syndicate.
- 1:59:31Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that one was part of the birth runs.
- 1:59:33Speaker 5: Yeah, that was pretty That.
- 1:59:34Speaker 8: One was pretty dope, and that was really the only
- 1:59:37Speaker 8: one that made.
- 1:59:39Speaker 1: Yeah that because of certain people, we don't certain certain influences.
- 1:59:44Speaker 1: I'm not gonna hold Youbama. You're actually right. He would,
- 1:59:50Speaker 1: but his hands are tied. James Gunn would be would
- 1:59:53Speaker 1: do right by the It's the only thing that you're right, Spartan.
- 1:59:57Speaker 1: It is the one thing that's holding him up. It's
- 2:00:00Speaker 1: one thing that's hold it up.
- 2:00:01Speaker 5: I would love to do a fan cast of the
- 2:00:04Speaker 5: Dakota Verse.
- 2:00:06Speaker 1: That'd be cool.
- 2:00:07Speaker 8: I would love to see who would be cast as
- 2:00:09Speaker 8: who if they did a movie of the Dakota Verse.
- 2:00:14Speaker 1: Oh, you mean them? You mean the movie Man of Tomorrow.
- 2:00:17Speaker 1: Title name has changed Superman Man of Tomorrow, And it
- 2:00:19Speaker 1: makes sense. I don't care about him, it makes sense.
- 2:00:23Speaker 1: It makes sense. But no, I can see a cast.
- 2:00:27Speaker 1: Oh that would be interesting because we already said about
- 2:00:29Speaker 1: Rocket Icon. Well I can see that too. What about
- 2:00:34Speaker 1: art not hardware? Dang it, I had it on tip
- 2:00:38Speaker 1: my tongue for a second. It'll come back to me,
- 2:00:41Speaker 1: but anyway it'll be. It would be great as far
- 2:00:43Speaker 1: as who would who we would come up with or
- 2:00:46Speaker 1: just those that are watching, who they would come up with.
- 2:00:48Speaker 6: For certain.
- 2:00:51Speaker 8: I could see them doing a cast of Blood Syndicate
- 2:00:55Speaker 8: with cameos of different cares from the Dakota Verse. This
- 2:01:02Speaker 8: is all based under the same story anyway, why not
- 2:01:05Speaker 8: have these appearances.
- 2:01:07Speaker 1: They're all running in the same universe.
- 2:01:09Speaker 8: Yeah, because in the original that was the reason why
- 2:01:13Speaker 8: they put the Quantum Juice into play.
- 2:01:16Speaker 5: M hm, because of the bloods.
- 2:01:18Speaker 1: And and the and the syndicate. Yeah. And then just
- 2:01:24Speaker 1: the whole story of hardware and Alva Industries and how
- 2:01:29Speaker 1: you talk about us. Uh uh, get your trademark, gets
- 2:01:32Speaker 1: your patent, get your trademark, gets your patent, get your
- 2:01:34Speaker 1: trade market, get your trademark, get your patent, get your trademark,
- 2:01:38Speaker 1: get your patent.
- 2:01:40Speaker 5: Surre has made that man millions.
- 2:01:42Speaker 8: And when you went up to him, Alvis said, I
- 2:01:44Speaker 8: have no more use for you. Oh you want to
- 2:01:47Speaker 8: leave your contracts that you cannot work for anybody else.
- 2:01:51Speaker 4: You feel blood.
- 2:01:54Speaker 1: But but I looked up to you. Well that was
- 2:01:57Speaker 1: your first mistake. Like this, you learned a lesson. Oh
- 2:02:06Speaker 1: my god. So we're getting out of here.
- 2:02:10Speaker 4: Too far.
- 2:02:11Speaker 1: Talk to the people. I'm not even gonna put the
- 2:02:13Speaker 1: thing because it's only four of us.
- 2:02:17Speaker 6: Yeah. Yeah, Monday Wednesday Friday. We should have check out
- 2:02:22Speaker 6: like clips and stuff.
- 2:02:23Speaker 7: We're doing reactions if you didn't make it through the
- 2:02:25Speaker 7: full show or we had to snipe stuff and I
- 2:02:27Speaker 7: had to do some black magic behind the scenes.
- 2:02:31Speaker 6: Get things.
- 2:02:32Speaker 1: What I means, y'all, we can't have anything. You know why?
- 2:02:35Speaker 1: You know why I'm working on the Patreon because we
- 2:02:38Speaker 1: can't have fun like we want to. That's true.
- 2:02:41Speaker 7: I don't get why ours got hit either, because I've
- 2:02:43Speaker 7: seen a bunch of other people react to it and
- 2:02:45Speaker 7: do like a lesser job of covering it.
- 2:02:48Speaker 6: So I'm like, why don't we get hit the wall? Ja?
- 2:02:52Speaker 5: We don't like book cheeks, That's why.
- 2:02:55Speaker 1: Are they in our pocket?
- 2:02:56Speaker 3: No?
- 2:02:58Speaker 1: Strike them down?
- 2:03:00Speaker 7: That's what gotna be like usually like we've done like
- 2:03:02Speaker 7: the Boys and gen V so like Prime hasn't gotten
- 2:03:05Speaker 7: us before.
- 2:03:05Speaker 6: So I don't know what that was about. Disliked while
- 2:03:09Speaker 6: YouTube was actively down.
- 2:03:11Speaker 1: That was weird. Like when I say when I say
- 2:03:14Speaker 1: we are literal rebels and pirates over here, that corporations
- 2:03:19Speaker 1: we're looking at us like we ain't paid for him,
- 2:03:22Speaker 1: so they are the world's worst people. Will be that
- 2:03:27Speaker 1: people know who we are, and that's why I sit
- 2:03:29Speaker 1: there and say because because we're not Bob, we're not Sambo,
- 2:03:33Speaker 1: and we're not tap dancing. We are not we are
- 2:03:37Speaker 1: not pulling up, we are not pulling Tim Scott's, we
- 2:03:39Speaker 1: are not weird. We aren't doing anything else except being ourselves.
- 2:03:45Speaker 1: And Scottie he didn't find he didn't found out that
- 2:03:51Speaker 1: his his. You know, this is what happened. You try
- 2:03:53Speaker 1: small white privilege and your body rejects it.
- 2:03:56Speaker 6: Yeah, but we're Monday and Friday.
- 2:04:00Speaker 7: You can catch the clips or just like funny segments

- 2:05:45Speaker 1: looks I had to tell people, Look, it's not media,
- 2:05:48Speaker 1: it's Joe, and I think Joe. I think Joe was
- 2:05:52Speaker 1: more of what Tyler Perry wants to say versus what
- 2:05:54Speaker 1: Madia is safe to say. Yeah.
